Congressional Liaison Offices of Selected Federal Agencies

Summary
This list of about 150 congressional liaison offices is intended to help congressional offices in
placing telephone calls and addressing correspondence to government agencies. In each case, the
information was supplied by the agency itself and is current as of the date of publication. Entries
are arranged alphabetically in four sections: legislative branch; judicial branch; executive branch;
and agencies, boards, and commissions.
Specific telephone numbers for correspondence, publications, and fax transmissions have been
provided for each applicable agency. When using fax, it is important to include the entire mailing
address on a cover sheet, as many of the listed fax machines are not directly located in the liaison
offices. For the convenience of the user, websites are included as well.
A number of agency listings include an e-mail address. When e-mailing agencies please
remember to include your name, affiliation, phone number, and return address, to ensure a speedy
response. Users should be aware that e-mail is not a confidential means of transmission.
This report was produced for congressional offices only. It will be updated frequently.
