Congressman Lipinski talks with an area resident about constituent services at a senior fair in Palos Hills

In the coming weeks, Congressman Dan Lipinski (IL-3) will be hosting a Town Hall Meeting in Oak Lawn, Senior Fairs in Chicago and Lockport, and a Veterans Fair in Bridgeview. 

At the Town Hall Meeting, Third District residents will be able to hear from Rep. Lipinski about his work on their behalf at home and in Washington, as well as ask questions and voice their opinions on federal issues.  Staff from the Congressman’s office will be available beginning one hour prior to the start of the meeting to provide assistance with Medicare, Social Security, veterans’ benefits, and other federal matters.

The Senior Fairs will give area residents an opportunity to get assistance with a variety of issues from the Congressman’s expert staff, as well as local organizations, agencies, and businesses that provide services to seniors.  During the Veterans Fair, Rep. Lipinski’s staff will be joined by other organizations to assist veterans with questions regarding military personnel and medical records, veterans’ claims and benefits, medals earned but not received, and other VA related issues.
