Town Halls, please

... I was hoping that my Congresswoman, Suzanne Bonamici, would have a Town Hall meeting...she is not – for the month of August anyway.

...she would want to do some explaining as to why she voted "No" on the bill that would keep President Obama from granting amnesty to immigrants without approval of Congress. I am very disappointed that Congresswoman Bonamici is behind the president on this. She will not get my support in November.

...pleased to see that Rep. Greg Walden was having three and Rep. Peter DeFazio 17. Congressmen Earl Blumenauer and Schrader are having zero Town Hall meetings this month.

...The lack of meetings suggests they are afraid to face their constituents and face the music.
