Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) will be part of the U.S. Congressional delegation participating in the ceremonies commemorating the 75h Anniversary of D-Day in Normandy, France on June 6, 2019. Rep. Loudermilk will join other U.S. military veterans serving in Congress to represent the United States at a series of ceremonies and memorials at historic battle sites.
“I am extremely honored to represent the United States of America, as a veteran and a Congressman,” said Loudermilk, “and to stand in place of my father and countless other patriots who once stepped on those shores in defense of freedom. Many Americans gave their last full measure of devotion during these battles; and, of those that did survive, most are no longer with us, but the memory of what they did there should never be forgotten.”

We are in the midst of the summer travel season, so we wanted to share information regarding the U.S. Visa Waiver Program. This program is beneficial for U.S. Citizens traveling overseas, and for visitors to the U.S. The Visa Waiver Program falls under the jurisdiction of the Department of Homeland Security, and is an agreement between thirty-eight (38) countries, allowing citizens entry for up to 90 days. The list of countries included in this program can be found online at Visa Waiver Program Requirements.
Travel under the Visa Wavier Program is restricted to travelers possessing passports with specified security features, including a machine-readable zone on the biographic page, and it must be an electronic passport with a digital chip containing biometric information about the passport owner. If your passport does not meet these requirements, you will either have to obtain a new passport or obtain a visa for the country you wish to visit.
