Elected in 2018, Nguyen has held monthly office hours since she took office. The hours went virtual during COVID, and constituents still have opportunities to sign up for virtual sessions with Nguyen.
Nguyen has slowly brought back in-person office hours since the height of the pandemic.

"In addition to office hours, people have always been able to reach out to Rep. Nguyen and schedule time to talk to her, whether by phone or in person," Nguyen spokesperson Christina Eckert said.
Eckert said all are welcome at office hours, regardless of party.
"It's an opportunity for constituents to talk to her about specific problems they may be having, that can be solved on a state level," Eckert said. " I have also seen people come to talk to her about broader issues, like drought, climate change, healthcare, and education."
