On Monday, October 22, and Monday, October 29, Congressman Stephen F. Lynch will host his second and third Telephone Town Halls with residents of the Ninth Congressional District.

Shortly before 5:30 PM on both Monday nights, the phones in tens of thousands of local homes will ring—and everyone who answers will be given the option of participating in the forums.  At 5:30 PM, Congressman Lynch will get on the phone from his office in Washington, D.C., and the Telephone Town Hall will begin.

During each live, hour-long forum, constituents will have the chance to ask Congressman Lynch questions about his recent official visit to Afghanistan, Pakistan and a Darfur refugee camp, the war in Iraq, congressional affairs, and local issues.

Congressman Lynch said, “I have the tremendous honor of representing 19 towns and 2 cities in the United States Congress, and I make a special effort to host regular open public forums in our District and attend every Town Meeting that occurs while I’m home.  Unfortunately, that’s not possible when Congress is in session and we have votes.  So this new technology will enable me to speak directly with more of the families I represent and hear their ideas and concerns.  More than 2,200 constituents took part in our first Telephone Town Hall, and I’m hopeful that these next two forums will be just as successful.”

Although these two Telephone Town Halls are targeted to certain cities and towns, every resident of the Ninth Congressional District is welcome to call in.
