Eagle Scout Congratulatory Letters

Many troops request Eagle Scout congratulatory letters from elected federal officials. Requests for these letters of congratulations sent to Washington DC may take several months to be received by our Congressmen and Senators. Listed below are the local offices for these officials. Using the local office increases the likelihood of a timely response. Faxing the request may speed up the response.

Please only request a congratulatory letter from the US Congressman that represents your district. If you aren’t sure in which Congressional District your troop is located, you can find out by visiting www.govtrack.us.
