Welcome to my friends from home! While Washington is far different from Texas, I think you will find it a wonderful place to visit. To make your stay as enjoyable as possible, I've included the following tour information about places of interest here in our nation's capital.
Like our Texas office, our office at 201 Cannon is designed to serve you. Please come by to visit and obtain House and Senate gallery passes. I listen to our neighbors from home in establishing priorities and in evaluating my positions on issues being considered in Congress. For additional information, please call (512) 916-5921 in Texas or (202) 225-4865 in Washington.
Enjoy your visit!
U.S.
Capitol Building: Free
public tours of the Capitol Building are offered every Monday through
Saturday. Timed, same-day tickets are distributed on a first-come,
first-served basis starting at 8:15 a.m. I recommend that you arrive
as early as possible for these tours and please be prepared to show
photo ID. On days when the House is in session, please stop by my office,
where you can obtain gallery passes that will allow you to view the
action on the House floor.
White
House Tours: After
being shut off to visitors for over two years, the White House
has reopened for tours on a limited basis. White House tours
require a six-month advance notice and must be arranged through
my office. To be placed on our
waiting list, please contact Aaron Tucker in my Washington office
by email (Aaron.Tucker@mail.house.gov),
phone (202-225-4865), or fax (202-225-3073).
NOTE: Pre-arranged Congressional tours
of the following venues for individuals are NOT available until further
notice:
