Clermont, FL - Florida Congressman Daniel Webster, R-Clermont, announced today that his office successfully facilitated the return of over $4.5 million owed to constituents in 2023. These constituents had reached out to his office seeking assistance with issues concerning federal agencies such as the IRS, VA, and Social Security.

"Providing my constituents with first-class assistance with issues involving federal agencies is one of my top priorities," stated Rep. Webster. He acknowledged that many Americans face frustrating delays when trying to secure the benefits they rightfully deserve. Webster expressed his satisfaction in being able to advocate on behalf of his constituents and ensure that they receive the services and compensation they have earned.

The dedicated constituent services staff in Webster's office work tirelessly alongside agency liaisons to address questions, find solutions, and navigate the bureaucratic red tape. Recently, Webster's office assisted a veteran widow in Lake County whose pension and life insurance benefits were entangled in VA bureaucracy.
