Tour Requests

If you are planning a visit to Washington, D.C., my office can help you schedule tours at the U.S. Capitol and the White House.

  • The United States Capitol:Senate offices are permitted to bring two groups of up to 15 people per week and must follow Capitol Visitor Center guidelines.  Schools and larger groups can now book tours of up to 50 people that will be led by the Capitol Visitor Center and can be reserved here. Our staff-led tours are available Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and are planned on a first come, first served basis.

 

  • The White House: The White House is currently offering tours on Fridays and Saturdays from 8:00 AM to 12:30 PM. Please note White House tour requests should be placed at least three months in advance and are not guaranteed due to high demand. If you wish to request a tour, you may fill out the tour request form below or contact our office. Tour decisions are made by the White House Visitors Office approximately 2-3 weeks prior to your requested tour date. My office will contact you when we receive notification from White House staff.

The Nebraska Breakfast is Capitol Hill’s longest-running all-delegation event. For over 80 years, Nebraska’s senators and representatives have hosted Nebraskans who are visiting Washington, DC. The event is held weekly from March to September on Wednesdays when the House and Senate are both in session. Learn more about participating in that tradition here.  If you need further assistance planning the rest of your visit, please feel free to utilize the resources below.
