November 14, 2016 Hello,
Direct Impact’s “New Faces in Congress and the Districts They Represent” provides an early review of
the new Members (6 in the U.S. Senate, 51 in the U.S. House of Representatives), the policies that
were the cornerstone of their campaigns, the local media in their home states or districts, and other
local influences.
It was clear from the results of the 2016 election that many voters wanted change. They didn’t feel like
their voice was being heard and they sent a clear message to elected officials that they need to listen
more and respond to the needs of their constituents. That message will not be lost on new Members of
Congress. As Members prepare for the 115th Congress and develop a new legislative agenda focused
on infrastructure investment, job creation, tax reform, and health care reform – among other things –
they and their staff will be looking to their constituents, key influencers and media back home for input
and guidance.
The following pages provide a brief introduction to the freshmen legislators from a local perspective,
offering a glimpse into their backgrounds and an overview of the states and districts they
represent. Direct Impact’s field network of public relations professionals located in every media market
and political jurisdiction in the U.S. allows us to gain invaluable insights about what moves
constituencies. Let us put these local assets to work for you. Now is the time to take your issue or
brand to the local level.
Please feel free to reach out to me should you have any questions or want to discuss further.
Sincerely,
Connie Partoyan
CEO
