August Listening Schedule
In order to hear from you and other Sixth District residents about health care, the economy, and other important issues facing our country, I scheduled several discussion opportunities during the month of August. I hope you were able to participate in one of the below events.
If you were not able to participate in one of these events, I still want to hear from you and encourage you to email me and/or call or visit one of my offices.
