Legislation with GOP Rep. Graves would modernize federal government resources to make more accessible for constituents

Washington DC – Congressman Joe Kennedy III (D-MA) and Congressmen Garret Graves (R-LA) applauded the unanimous passage of their Creating Advanced Streamlined Electronic Services (CASES) for Constituents Act in the U.S. House of Representatives last night.

The CASES for Constituents Act would make the federal government more user-friendly for constituents by giving the public the option to use the internet to authorize their congressperson to conduct casework on their behalf.

“A constituent seeking the assistance of their federal government should not be denied relief because their government hasn’t caught up to modern technology,” said Congressman Kennedy. “Through the CASES Act, we can not only modernize our constituent services, but become more efficient as we seek to lift a burden off our neighbors’ shoulders. I thank Congressman Graves for his leadership on this issue and look forward to seeing this legislation pass the Senate.” Read More
