Use of government official's title

[CAA4156]

In written form: Is the title, in this case: State Representative, displayed on a plaque above or below the Congressperson's name? Additionally, when introducing said same person at a Board meeting, is this person refered to as "State Representative" or "Congressperson" followed by the name?

That would depend a lot on the context. Usually, if the title is part of the name line, it precedes the person's real name. I'm not at all sure about Congressperson, since the person's gender will undoubtedly be known.

Latin was an improvement over Greek.
