Constituent Services

If you are a Senate District 9 resident experiencing issues with a state agency, Senator Girod may be able to help you. Senator Girod's staff specializes in working with constituents who have encountered problems with government agencies and will be happy to assist you.

While it isn't possible to set aside state laws, rules, and regulations for an individual, Senator Girod and his staff can help Oregonians with misunderstandings, disagreements, and other problems they are having with state agencies. Although some cases can take longer to resolve than others, many requests for assistance can be resolved with a letter or phone call from Senator Girod's office.

Senator Girod's staff members with work state agencies. Some of the agencies we contact on a daily basis include:

  • Department of Transportation
  • Department of Consumer and Business Services
  • Department of Human Services
  • Department of Veterans Affairs
  • Department of Revenue

In order to process requests in a timely matter, our staff will need your full name, address, daytime phone number, and pertinent case or file numbers. Copies of previous correspondence with an agency can also provide us helpful background.

Please send your requests for help to:

State Senator Fred Girod
900 Court St NE S217
Salem, OR 97301

E-mail

A member of our staff will contact you as soon as we receive a response from the state agency. If you wish to follow up on your case after a reasonable amount of time has passed, please contact our State Capitol office at 503-986-1709.

Senator Girod represents Senate District 9 in the Santiam Canyon. To find out if you are a resident of Senate District 17, utilize the Oregon Legislature's website. In addition, residents have two State Representatives who represent the district also - Representative Vic Gilliam and Representative Sherrie Sprenger.

When contacting Senator Girod, it is important to let us know if you have already contact another Legislator. The chances of success do not necessarily increase if more than one legislator gets involved. In fact, it can be counter-productive. Responding to multiple inquiries duplicates the work for agencies, leaving them less time to actually work on processing your case.

There are limits to the types of cases in which Senator Girod can help. For example, as a state official, Senator Girod cannot intervene with federal agencies or on-going legal or judicial proceedings.

Senator Girod also cannot intervene in private matters or local issues, such as zoning, property taxes, and road repair that are under the jurisdiction of the city or county in which you live. Please utilize the contacts on our District Info page to help resolve local or federal issues.
