State Sen. Dinniman Announces Two Town Halls Next Week, Including One In Phoenixville

PHOENIXVILLE, PA -- State Sen. Andy Dinniman will hold two town halls next week, including one in Phoenixville and one via telephone, his office announced.

“We’re in a very politically-active period for Chester County, Pennsylvania, and our nation," Dinniman said in a statement. "My office continues to receive an influx of comments and inquiries from constituents on a range of topics. I firmly believe it is the duty and obligation of every elected representative to hold public discussions and forums. That is why I am hosting these town hall meetings and will continue to do so."

Town halls have come into the national spotlight in recent weeks as raucousness and wild crowds at several events led Republican Congressmen to hold the meetings via telephone. This prompted uproar from some on the left, and the issue has remained a contentious one.

Dinniman's tele-town hall will occur on Tuesday, March 7 at 7 p.m. Constituents will receive a phone call just before 7 with instructions on how to participate. Please see here if you would like to sign up or to submit a question.

The in-person event will take place on Saturday, March 11 at 10 a.m. at Franklin Commons' Franklin Hall in Phoenixville. Franklin Commons is located on 400 Franklin Avenue.
