U.S. Senator Todd Young and his team have assisted over 2,500 Indiana residents in resolving issues with federal agencies this year. This effort has resulted in more than $12.1 million being returned to taxpayers in the state.

Since he began serving in the Senate in 2017, Senator Young has helped nearly 17,000 Hoosiers recover around $100 million from federal agencies.

A significant portion of the recovered funds for 2024 involved cases with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), accounting for nearly $8.2 million returned to constituents. Additionally, $3.7 million was retrieved from Social Security and Veterans Affairs claims.

Beyond financial recovery, Senator Young's constituent service team assists with various other issues such as expediting passport applications, obtaining missing commendation medals for veterans, and navigating international adoption cases.

"When Hoosiers are improperly denied benefits they are owed or when the federal bureaucracy is moving too slowly, inquiries from members of Congress can kickstart the process," Senator Young stated. "Our team is always committed to helping Hoosiers resolve issues involving federal agencies."
