Pallone Urges New Jerseyans to Take Advantage of Convenient Satellite Office Locations

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: October 25, 2011

Washington, DC – Congressman Frank Pallone, Jr. Tuesday urged constituents to take advantage of one of his seven New Jersey office locations regarding federal assistance on a variety of issues. Congressman Pallone and district staff work out of two permanent district offices in addition to five satellite offices with regular hours each month in order to be as accessible as possible to constituents.

“My staff and I are constantly working on better ways to reach out to constituents which is why there’s always a door open in one of my offices,” said Pallone. “I encourage constituents to take advantage of the services offered at all of my office locations.”

So far this year, Congressman Pallone has successfully secured over one million dollars on behalf of constituents in the form of disability back pay, social security payments, mortgage modifications, hurricane disaster aid and more.

Constituents who have issues with their Social Security benefits, federal pensions, Medicare eligibility, and U.S. citizenship are eligible for help. Additionally, Pallone and his staff frequently assist veterans to obtain back pay, GI Bill benefits, VA disability claims, as well as assistance to widows receive pensions that are owed to them. Staff can also be helpful in locating low-income housing options, and energy assistance and various other benefits or resources that may be beneficial.
