The office of Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo., is inviting Garfield County residents to schedule office hours in Glenwood Springs from 3-5 p.m. Monday, Sept. 29. Bennet’s Central Mountains Regional Director Delany Deskin will host the office hours.

Bennet’s office said the meetings are intended to “answer Coloradans’ questions, listen to concerns, and help navigate federal agencies,” according to a news release.

“There’s no greater responsibility, as Colorado’s senator, than being responsive to the needs of Coloradans across our state. I’m pleased to announce that our office will hold in-person office hours this fall,” Bennet said in the release. “If you’re having issues navigating a federal agency or receiving benefits, or have any questions, comments, or concerns, I encourage you to schedule time to talk with our team.”
