Rep Mary Gay Scanlon Hosting Townhall In Media Wednesday

MEDIA, PA — Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon (PA-05) is hosting her first in-person town hall of the year Wednesday in Media.

The town hall will take place at 6 p.m. Wednesday in the Student Union Building at Penn State Brandywine campus.

The event is free and open to the public, but advance registration is required.

Residents of Pennsylvania’s 5th Congressional District can register for the event online.

Scanlon will share updates on her work on behalf of families in Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia Counties and take questions from attendees.

"After nearly two years of limiting constituent meetings to virtual gatherings and small venues due to public health concerns, I am happy to resume hosting larger in-person town halls as another way to engage with constituents," Scanlon said. "Hearing directly from the residents of PA-05 is always a rewarding experience, and helps me to better serve as their voice in Congress. We’ve all been through a challenging few years, and I want to get feedback from everyone I represent about what’s working, and what isn’t, as we continue to recover from the pandemic. While I am optimistic about America’s strong economic recovery, historic job growth, advances in health care to help limit the impact of COVID-19, and the passage of a much-needed infrastructure package, I also share my constituents' concerns about the challenges of inflation, gun violence, anti-democratic influences, and other inequities that still need to be addressed. I look forward to hearing from residents of the 5th Congressional District as my team and I set strategy and prioritize the work that lies ahead."

The event will take place at 25 Yearsley Mill Road in Media.
