Year in Review

December 31, 2021

Greetings!

As we close out 2021 and look forward to the year ahead, I wanted to share some milestones from my first year in office. I am so grateful to serve our community in Congress. This is my American dream, and I look forward to serving our community in the new year! Check out some of the highlights from my year below:

Year-End Message From Michelle

Serving You

I am so proud of the constituent service we were able to provide this year. From helping you expedite passport requests to reinstating social security payments and helping with Veteran’s disability claims – we were able to return $6.7 million that constituents were owed from Federal Agencies. If you need assistance cutting through government red tape, please click here to submit a request to my office.

When I’m not in Washington voting and working on legislation, I’m grateful for the opportunity to spend time in our community connecting with so many of you. This year, I attended over 130 community events in Orange County, including roundtables and visits to local businesses, schools, and nonprofit organizations.

Working in Washington

In Washington, I’ve introduced over a dozen bills to help Orange County residents, on issues like fixing the supply chain, expanding telehealth, and combatting unemployment fraud. You can always see the bills I’ve introduced or co-sponsored by visiting this page on my website.

I have co-sponsored 135 bills that would support our veterans, make resources available to small businesses, and hold China accountable for their human rights abuses. I’m also proud that 79 of these bills have bipartisan support.

Year One by the Numbers

I’ll be using this newsletter as a way to keep you up to date on my work on behalf of our Orange County community, so make sure you sign up for regular updates.

You can also connect with my official Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram pages, where I’ll be posting the latest news and updates.

Sincerely,

Rep. Michelle Steel

Member of Congress
