1 answer

Among the options provided, a mayor is generally the most accessible government representative to the general public. Mayors often engage directly with local communities, attend public meetings, and may have more opportunities for residents to interact with them compared to higher-level representatives like Congresspersons or federal department heads, who operate at a broader level and may be less accessible due to their responsibilities and the scale of their jurisdiction. State representatives also provide access, but mayors typically have a more direct and personal connection to local constituents.
