“I was getting the run around from Medicare and a Social Security about a refund related to my mother's estate after her death. It took two years of me calling and submitting documents and getting the run around before I finally decided, on the advice of a friend, to call Congresswoman Emilia Sykes. Once it was in her hands, things were resolved extremely quickly and I was able to get the refund that I had been waiting on for for nearly three years.”
Stephanie A. - Massillon
“I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the swift and effective assistance provided by Congresswoman Emilia Sykes and her office.

“Thank you for your assistance with Medicaid. Your team promptly responded and checked on my case. Your team expressed concern and was always willing to help out any way possible, including giving me various resources and people to reach out to. If I have to reach out again, I would do so knowing that your team really responds to citizens’ complaints.”
Mariama K. - Akron
"Thank you so much for all that you do. The Office of Congresswoman Emilia Sykes was indeed a huge help with the issue I had. If it wasn’t for your great employees, my husband would’ve still been in Africa waiting for his visa. I had three children under four and I was desperately in need of my husband's financial and emotional support. Your office made that possible by reaching out to the U.S Embassy in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire on my behalf. We were able to get all my questions answeredy and my family was reunited shortly after contacting your office. My only regret was not contacting your office sooner."
Sadie M. - Cuyahoga Falls
“I was very pleased with the service I got. Congresswoman Sykes’ staff was very helpful and talked me through a lot. I heard about you through a friend and I thought why not give it a chance and what could I lose. You really made me feel like you were trying to get my case situated, and I will definitely be telling people about my amazing experience! Thank you again!”
Gary - Akron
“I’m so thankful for your help. No one was listening when I called various Social Security offices for help. It was a nightmare. So happy to report that your office resolved the problem. I’ve been refunded for charges I never agreed to in the first place. Thank you!”
Elham R. - Hudson
“Congresswoman Sykes doesn’t just represent us, she goes above and beyond for us. Her office is a beacon of hope and an exemplar of compassionate and effective leadership. It’s been an honor to have her as our representative, and I fully endorse her continued service to our district. Her advocacy makes a real difference in our lives, and I am deeply grateful for all they have done for my family and our community.”
Sophia G. - North Canton
“Congresswoman Emilia Sykes I had applied for a passport and despite paying all the extra fees for quicker service, my passport was not coming in time for my trip for a study abroad program. I was impressed by how fast Rep. Sykes’ office handled my problem, and I received the passport in less than a week. Everyone was extremely kind and I immediately felt relieved that I would not miss my flight for a life changing experience. I want to thank Rep. Sykes and her office from the bottom of my heart for this, and I will surely tell others of how hard they worked to make things happen.”
Sara G. - Stow
“I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for your invaluable assistance in obtaining my passport in such a timely manner. Your dedication and hard work are truly commendable, and I cannot thank you enough for going above and beyond to help me. With the passport in my hands, a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders, and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Your efforts have made a significant difference in ensuring the success of my upcoming trip, and I am immensely grateful for your support. Once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart!”
