PLEASE NOTE: Due to the extremely high volume of faxed messages my offices receive, I am unable to guarantee a response to all faxed inquiries. Additionally, following the 2001 anthrax attacks on congressional offices, the U.S. Capitol Police screen and irradiate every piece of mail before it may be delivered to my Washington, DC office. Unfortunately, this results in delays in the delivery of letters and packages. Therefore, for the reasons above, I recommend that the most expedient way to contact my office is by email or telephone.
