Lt. Governor Diane Denish will be reaching out directly to constituents in rural New Mexico to hear their concerns and ideas. It's all part of a series of Roundhouse on the Road Tours Denish kicks off today in Santa Rosa, Fort Sumner and Melrose. On this first tour, the Lt. Gov. is set to travel more than 500 miles, visiting eight towns in just three days. She'll be holding her constituent meetings inside a Department of Tourism bus.

“I’m looking forward to meeting as many people as possible” said Denish. “I’m traveling to not only listen to the concerns people may have, but also to hear their ideas on how we can better serve them,” she added.

According to a release from Denish's office, the general purpose of the Lieutenant Governor's Constituent Services Office is to provide assistance to citizens with individual problems or requests that relate to State Government. The office facilitates and promotes cooperation between the people of New Mexico and the various state agencies by directing citizen's complaints to the proper state agency.

On her Roundhouse on the Road tour, Denish will be traveling with her constituent services staff. Everyone is encouraged and very much welcomed to drop by during office hours for a meeting with the Lt. Governor.
