Dear Friend,

As my tenure in Congress comes to an end, my offices are preparing for an orderly transfer to Representative-elect Tom Malinowski for New Jersey’s 7^th Congressional District.

Accordingly, my Washington office will close Tuesday, November 20th.

Subsequently, all tours offered by my staff have ended.  Tours of the U.S. Capitol can still be reserved and conducted by the official tour guides of the Capitol Visitors Center.  Tour requests can also be made via the offices of New Jersey Senators Cory Booker and Robert Menendez.

Constituent services offered by Westfield and Flemington District Office staff will remain uninterrupted until Thursday, December 20.  

Residents who have open casework issues will be contacted in the coming days with the option to transfer their cases to Representative-elect Malinowski’s office in the new Congress or end their inquiry altogether.  No new constituents casework will be accepted.  All new casework inquiries will be forwarded to the offices of Senators Booker and Menendez.  If you have any questions or concerns, please call 908-518-7733 or 908-788-6900.

My deepest gratitude goes to all of the residents of this wonderful congressional district.  It has been an honor to represent you in the U.S. House of Representatives for the last ten years.  The election is now over. We must move the Nation forward in a bipartisan and united way, treating each other with civility and respect, as I have always done and will continue to do.

Best personal wishes,

Leonard Lance
