The People’s Town Hall featuring Q&A with Congressman Frank Pallone

July 14, 2017 @ 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Join us for an evening of political dialogue and civic engagement with an elected representative and hear updates from Washington on the issues that matter to you.


A COLLABORATION BETWEEN CITIZENS OF NEW JERSEY’S 4TH AND 6TH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS

On July 14, neighbors from New Jersey’s 4th and 6th districts will gather to discuss resistance politics, build partnerships across district lines, and engage in a Q&A session with Congressman Frank Pallone. We are grateful Representative Pallone’s willingness to provide insight into the goings-on in Washington, as well as the hospitality of our Monmouth County neighbors.


WHAT’S ON YOUR MIND?

We want to hear from you. After all, this is YOUR town hall! What’s on your mind? Healthcare? Russian interference in our democracy? Freedom of the press? Civil Rights? Economic security? Reproductive justice? When you reserve your seat, you’ll be asked to submit a question for Rep. Pallone. We will summarize the questions by topic and hopefully leave some time for open-mic Q&A. If you can’t attend on the 14th, but have a question for Rep. Pallone, you can submit it here and we will do our best to ask it on your behalf.


WANT TO VOLUNTEER?

From taking tickets to writing press releases to helping with social media, we are a small group of volunteers and we could use your help! Click here to sign up, or email us at peoplestownhall@gmail.com.
