ST. JOSEPH - Residents across East Central Illinois will have an opportunity to meet face-to-face with State Representative Adam Niemerg later this month as he brings his “Satellite Office Hours” to seven local communities. The outreach effort, set for Wednesday, Nov. 13, is part of the Republican lawmaker’s ongoing effort to make government services more accessible to constituents in the 102nd District.
“My satellite office hours provide convenient locations for constituents to get help closer to their home,” Niemerg said. “I encourage people to take advantage of these opportunities to get help with state programs or discuss state concerns.”
Throughout the day, Niemerg’s staff will be available to assist residents with questions or issues involving state agencies, programs, or legislation. Walk-ins are welcome, but appointments can also be made by calling his Paris district office at (217) 712-2126 or by visiting RepNiemerg.com.
The Nov. 13 schedule includes stops in:
- St. Joseph – Swearingen Memorial Library, 201 N. Third St., 9 to 10 a.m.
- Homer – Village Hall, 500 E. Second St., 10:30 to 11:30 a.m.
- Fairmount – Fire Department, 403 S. High St., 1 to 2 p.m.
- Chrisman – Public Library, 108 N. Illinois St., 3 to 4 p.m.
A Teutopolis native, Niemerg lives in rural Dieterich (Bishop Township) with his wife, Trina, and their two young children. The family belongs to the St. Isidore Catholic Parish and attends St. Aloysius Church. A 2002 graduate of Teutopolis High School, Niemerg earned his bachelor’s degree from Eastern Illinois University before entering public service.
Representing the 102nd District—an area known for its strong farming roots—Niemerg said his family’s agricultural background helps him understand the challenges faced by rural communities. “My grandfather operated a small family farm,” he said. “That experience shaped my perspective on the issues that matter most to families and small businesses throughout our district.”
