Wyden plans Bend, Madras, Prineville town halls
Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., announced Friday will hold town halls starting next week in a dozen counties throughout Oregon, wrapping up the visit with ones in Bend, Madras and Prineville Jan. 25-26.
Heading into these 12 events, Wyden has held 920 town halls statewide overall since promising Oregonians that he would hold at least one annual town hall in each of the state’s 36 counties.
“Throwing open the doors of government and listening to the Oregonians I’m proud to represent is a must,” said Wyden, who recently won a second straight MVP award from the Town Hall Project for holding the most town halls of any senator in 2018. “These open-to-all town hall meetings allow any person to ask a question or share an idea. These conversations are part of what I call the ‘Oregon Way’ leading to solutions that work.”
