IF you need assistance or have a question about a federal agency, Congressman Burton's staff may be able to help resolve the problem or provide helpful information. Some of the most frequently asked questions pertain to the following agencies:
According to the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Standards of Official Conduct, my office cannot act as an attorney or offer legal assistance in any way.
Information concerning attorney referral services can be found at the Legal Service Organization at (317) 631-9410 and the American Bar Association at (317) 264-8340.
My jurisdiction as a United States Congressman does not extend to programs and other matters governed by the various departments of the State of Indiana.
While I will always do my best to assist you, please remember that federal agencies have discretion concerning decisions on individual cases. I am not permitted by law to force an independent agency to change its determination.
