Idaho Congressman Mike Simpson announces changes in his District office. The addition of a new Congressional Staffer in the Pocatello Office will help serve constituents of not only Bannock County, but Bear Lake, Bingham, Caribou, Franklin, Oneida and Power.
 
Steve Brown is Simpson’s newest Regional Director. He will be able to hit the ground running as he joined Simpson’s staff after serving Senator Craig for almost 6 years in a similar capacity. Brown is the Chairman of the Pocatello Development Authority and a Member of the Bannock Development Corporation. The Pocatello office is located at 275 S. 5th Ave. #275, Pocatello, phone 208-233-2222.
 
Amy Sorensen has been promoted to Simpson’s casework director. She oversees all dealings between constituents and federal agencies, such as Veterans Benefits, Internal Revenue Service, Social Security, and more. She will operate this function out of Blackfoot. For constituents who need help finding their way through a federal agency, they may e-mail Amy at amy.sorensen@mail.house.gov, phone 208-220-6273 or write to 51 N. Broadway, #108, Blackfoot, ID, 83221.
 
“Amy, Steve and the rest of my staff know that their number one job is to serve the residents of the Second Congressional District,” said Simpson. “I believe we will be able to enhance our opportunities to serve constituents by hiring Steve Brown and promoting Amy Sorensen. They both have extensive Idaho roots and knowledge in their areas of expertise.”
