REPS. KEVIN CAMERON AND BRIAN CLEM TO HOLD

TELEPHONE TOWN HALL ON EDUCATION,

Over 20,000 households will be invited to participate

 

SALEM—Rep. Kevin Cameron (R-Salem) and Rep. Brian Clem (D-Salem) will host a live telephone town hall on Wednesday, April 17.  The conversation will focus on the midway mark of the 77th Legislative Assembly.  The telephone town hall will give Oregonians an opportunity to share their priorities and concerns surrounding current legislation in the House.

 

“We are excited to host the first bi-partisan telephone town hall for the greater Salem community,” commented Rep. Cameron.  Rep. Clem went on to state, “I’m looking forward to using this technology to hear from our community on the issues that matter most to them.”

 

The telephone town hall will take place on Wednesday, April 17th from 7-8pm. Both Rep. Cameron and Rep. Clem will be live on the call and will host the question and answer period with phone call participants for nearly an hour.

 

“This is a great way for members of our communities to get involved and have a very real and honest conversation about Oregon’s future,” said Rep. Cameron. “It is important to us that we are representing our districts and our state to the best of our ability—I am looking forward to speaking with our constituents and finding out more about how we can better serve them.”

 

“During session it’s important to hear from the people you represent. It can become an echo chamber around here if you don’t reach out to your neighbors. Each time I do this I leave with a better sense of what I was sent here to do,” said Rep. Clem

 

The telephone town hall will call-in to 20,000 household’s in House Districts 19 and 21.  Recipients have the option to join the live phone call with Rep. Cameron and Rep. Clem. There is no cost to participants.

 

However, the town hall is not limited to their constituents. Other interested individuals can participate by signing up at www.kevincameronfororegon.com and following the prompts.
