Complaints against the Federal Government

Disputes with federal agencies fall within the jurisdiction of the federal government. Thus, the State of California is preempted from assuming jurisdiction. We recommend you write to your federal legislators in the United States House of Representatives and Senate. They may be reached by writing to the United States Capitol, Washington, DC. The zip code for a United States Senator's office is 20510 and a House member is 20515. The main number to the U.S. Capitol to reach any member of Congress is (202) 224-3121.

Assisting the Congress is the General Accounting Office which provides legal, accounting, auditing and claims-settlement services and facilitates more efficient and effective government operations for Congress. Keep in mind that allegations which are not clear and specific cannot be acted on.
