Shimkus Staffer in Equality, Brookport June 29

Republican Congressman John Shimkus has a tradition of having his staff hold office hours in addition to those he holds himself. This is an opportunity for constituents to meet with someone from Shimkus’ office in a couple of Southern Illinois towns soon.

“These office hours allow you to meet face to face with my staff instead of over the telephone or having to drive to Harrisburg,” Shimkus explained. “The staff person will be able to handle any issue you may have regarding my office or the federal government.”

A member of Shimkus’ staff will be in Equality on Wednesday, June 29, from 10:30 am until noon at the Equality Municipal Building (123 N Calhoun Street). 

In the afternoon, the staff member will be in Brookport from 2:30 – 4:00 pm at the Brookport City Hall (209 Ohio Street). Those who cannot attend in person may contact Shimkus’ local office at 618-252-8271.

More information on services offered by the Congressman's office is also available on his website: shimkus.house.gov. There you can sign up for a weekly email newsletter, periodic veterans and grant notice email newsletters, and send a message to the Congressman on the website. Shimkus also maintains Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube accounts, where regular updates are posted.

Constituents requiring special accommodations should call at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled office hours.
