“My retirement pension was not processed by a federal agency for nearly a year after my retirement, with no explanation for the delay. All of my inquiries to that agency were ignored. I contacted Congresswoman Stevens' office and her staff had the matter straightened out in 48 hours. They acted on my request within hours of my initial e-mail.

Dear Friend,
Thanks to the newly enacted Inflation Reduction Act, eligible families will save hundreds of dollars a year in energy savings. The policies in the law are monumental on a national scale – it will reduce the deficit by $300 billion while also standing up programs to spur the transition to clean energy.
