Community Issues And Events
I am always eager to dig into local and regional issues affecting this great congressional district. Much of my work in Washington is driven by specific cases and projects that my constituents face, from river restoration to rural broadband needs.
Roundtables, site visits, and virtual town halls are an important time for me to hear constituent concerns, answer questions and share my policy perspectives. My constituents also share their concerns and priorities with me by mail, email, and phone calls – sometimes more than 5,000 pieces of correspondence per week, which is more than double most congressional offices. The people of the Second Congressional District are engaged and participating in the political process like never before.
Be sure to subscribe to my newsletter to stay informed about my upcoming community events on the North Coast.
