On Monday, the Congressional Management Foundation announced that Congresswoman Val Hoyle’s Washington D.C. office has received its Best DC Constituent Experience Award for 2026.

A release from Hoyle’s office said the annual award is given to an office that demonstrates excellence in serving their constituents and fostering meaningful between members of Congress and the people they represent.

Congresswoman Hoyle said, “An office is only as good as its staff, and in our office, it is a team effort to prioritize taking care of every constituent to the best of our ability”. Hoyle said, “I am incredibly proud of my team for setting an example for congressional offices across the country about what constituent service should look like”.

Hoyle said, “I also want to thank our constituents from across the political spectrum. This recognition would not have been possible without the many kind words and positive feedback you shared with the Foundation during its review process. You are what makes our district and our office special”.

The release said the Foundation cited several factors in selecting Representative Hoyle’s office for the award, including the team’s commitment to continuous improvement, proactive outreach to Oregon students about internship opportunities in Congress, and dedication to meeting constituents wherever necessary – whether on the House floor, committee rooms or throughout the Capitol complex – to ensure every visitor has the best experience possible.

The Foundation also highlighted Representative Hoyle and her staff’s personally guided nighttime tour of the U.S. Capitol, which provide constituents with a unique opportunity to experience the Capitol after hours while connecting Oregonians from communities across the state.

The release said last year, Representative Hoyle was also recognized as one of the most effective freshmen members of Congress.
