Woodall Announces January Town Hall Meetings
One will be a telephone meeting; the other two will be in person in Gwinnett and Forsyth counties.

U.S. Rep. Rob Woodall (R-GA) will host his first round of Town Hall Meetings for 2013 in his Seventh District, which consists of parts of Gwinnett and Forsyth counties.Β Two of these meetings will be in-person and one will be over the telephone.Β
βWe have our work cut out for us this Congress,β said Woodall in a press release announcing the upcoming meetings. βWith all of the drama surrounding the so-called fiscal cliff βdealβ at the end of the last Congress, Americans are demanding not only answers from Washington, but action.Β I hosted multiple Town Hall Meetings throughout those debates to ensure that those I represent made their voices heard, and to ensure that they were kept informed throughout the entire process.βΒ
βNow with the White House working to circumvent Congress on gun control legislation, as well as another looming debt ceiling increase, itβs important that I hear what those I represent have to say on these issues,β Woodall said.
