Besides the district-office locations, Katko also announced additional members of his staff.
They include Zach Howell, who will serve as legislative director to help Katko “develop and implement” his legislative priorities, his office said.

The Washington, D.C. staff also includes Jordan Lane, who will serve as executive assistant scheduling inquiries for both Katko’s Washington, D.C. and district offices. Lane, a graduate of The Master’s College in California, also worked for lawmakers serving California and Michigan.
Three additional staff members have ties to Central New York.
Katko hired Kevin Gannon as his staff assistant, joining the Washington, D.C. office after serving on the staff of U.S. Representative Tom Reed (N.Y.–23), who serves areas of New York’s Southern Tier. Gannon, a Syracuse native, is a recent graduate of Hobart College.
Christina Cornell, who most recently worked at the Cayuga County Chamber of Commerce, will join Katko’s staff as a constituent-service representative in the Cayuga County district office. Cornell, a graduate of SUNY Cortland, previously worked in the office of New York State Assemblyman Gary Finch (R–Springport), according to the news release.
The staff also includes Theresa Robinson, who will work in the Syracuse office as a staff assistant.
