Ciscomani Returns over $150K to Constituents During Government Shutdown

TUCSON - Congressman Juan Ciscomani (AZ-06) returned over $153,000 to constituents in Arizona's sixth congressional district during the month of October, despite the federal government shutdown that began on October 1 at midnight.

Throughout October, Congressman Ciscomani and his team opened 70 cases, which includes federal casework involving the Department of Veterans Affairs, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Department of Homeland Security, and more agencies, which returned $153,000 to the district, and received 41 applications for a military academy nomination, which were due at the end of October.

"I'm incredibly proud of the work we've completed to return money and continue to provide clarity and answers to constituents across our congressional district during this shutdown," Congressman Ciscomani said. "My team remains open and ready to serve you through this difficult time."

While this has been incredibly successful month, we know that federal employees and recipients of federal programs are feeling the impact of the Democrat-led government shutdown.

Should you or someone you know need any federal casework assistance or resources on food availability or information, please don't hesitate to contact Congressman Ciscomani's Tucson district office at (520)-881-3588.
