Jeannie Dees, branch office administrator for the Eastover office of Edward Jones, recently was appointed to the firm's Branch Office Administrators (BOA) Grassroots Legislative Task Force. The group is dedicated to raising the issues on the minds of individual investors to local, state and national lawmakers.

As a task force member, Dees will travel to Washington, D.C., to discuss with lawmakers a number of investment-related issues. Dani Osborne, the local Edward Jones financial advisor, said Dees is genuinely concerned about legislative issues that affect investors.

"And she has expressed an interest in conveying investors' views to elected officials," Osborne said in a press release. "I know she will do an exceptional job of representing our clients' concerns."

Osborne and Dees's office is located at 4064 Dunn Road in Eastover.
