Kilmer plans telephone town hall

WASHINGTON — U.S. Rep. Derek Kilmer will conduct his 12th telephone town hall at 6 p.m. Tuesday.

Participants will have the opportunity to ask Kilmer — who represents the 6th Congressional District, which includes the North Olympic Peninsula — a question or leave a message with their comments.

“I’m looking forward to folks joining my next telephone town hall,” said Kilmer, a Gig Harbor Democrat.

“I work for you and it’s important that I continue to be accessible and accountable.”

Residents of the 6th District who would like to join the call can sign up at www.kilmer.house.gov/contact/townhall or send an email to kilmer.teletownhall@mail.house.gov with their name and phone number by 3 p.m. Monday.

Those who sign up before the deadline will receive a phone call at 6 p.m. Tuesday inviting them to the town hall.

In February, Kilmer held seven town halls across the 6th Congressional District to hear directly from constituents on a wide range of issues.

He also frequently meets face to face with constituents and takes their questions at forums and Kilmer at Your Company events.
