- U.S. Reps. Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco
- U.S. Reps. Jackie Speier, D-San Francisco/San Mateo
- Anna Eshoo, D-Palo Alto
- Barbara Lee, D-Oakland

A maximum of two tickets can be requested, and only through the online forms on congressional websites.
Requests will not be accepted by phone or email.

A random lottery will be held by Dec. 13 to determine who will receive tickets to the ceremony.
