Town Hall meetings are great opportunities to speak to your members of Congress directly!
Due to the Memorial Day Holiday and Congress being in recess next week, there are more than usual scheduled for this weekend and all throughout next week.
Here are three ways you can find out about these events, which are often announced with very little notice:
* Check the list at Town Hall Project. You can also sign up to be automatically notified when one of your members of Congress schedules an event.
* Go to your members’ websites – House / Senate.
* Check your members’ social media accounts. Some even hold virtual Town Halls on Facebook.
Information to print and bring can be downloaded HERE. To see which members have already cosponored go to: House Cosponsor List / Senate Cosponsor List.
Not sure what to say or feel nervous? Check out this 2 minute video of one of our advocates, pictured above, speaking to her Rep at a Town Hall. He cosponsored the next day!
When you speak up it makes a difference!
