Sacramento, CA – Congressman Ami Bera (D-CA) highlighted his office's strong record of constituent services for Sacramento County residents last night. On a Telephone Town Hall, Bera thanked his staff for a productive 2017 and revealed that, since taking office, his staff has helped almost 9,000 Sacramento residents with their backlogged veterans' benefits, Social Security and Medicare issues, stalled tax refunds, and much more. Bera also noted his office has helped return more than $4.6 million dollars to local Sacramento residents.

"Listening to Sacramento County residents and making government work them is my most important job," said Rep. Bera. "Our office does everything we can to help taxpayers cut through bureaucratic red tape and I am proud of my staff for a productive year."

Since taking office, Rep. Ami Bera's office has helped 8,958 Sacramento County residents and returned $4,649,954 to local taxpayers.
