Constituents frustrated with inability to reach Heller
By Seth A. Richardson, Reno Gazette-Journal
Nancy Lang has been trying to reach Sen. Dean Heller’s office for some time, but to no avail.
The 67-year-old from Gardnerville wanted to talk about some of the votes before the Senate – especially confirmation votes for some of President Trump’s cabinet appointees and the precarious position of President Barack Obama’s health care plan in Congress.
Especially problematic at the moment for Lang is Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, who Heller on Wednesday came out in support of.
Heller addressed the large numbers of calls via a Thursday morning tweet” We are experiencing heavy call volumes in all our offices. Staff is answering as many as possible. Please continue calling to get through.”
