Shea seeks input during Wednesday evening telephone town hall meeting
Rep. Matt Shea, R-Spokane Valley, is inviting citizens throughout the 4th Legislative District to join him this Wednesday evening, March 20, for a telephone town hall meeting.
“We are now past the first floor cutoff of the session. The state revenue forecast will be released on Wednesday, and soon, the focus in the Legislature will be on writing a two-year state operating budget. In addition, we successfully stopped an assault on second amendment rights, and have advanced many portions of our Freedom Agenda. So there’s lots to talk about,” said Shea. “It’s a very good time to hold this teleforum, provide an update and listen to what citizens back home are saying.”
The forum is similar to a radio call-in talk show. Citizens may call a toll-free number, ask questions of Shea during the one-hour telephone conference, and participate in issue-based surveys.
“This is a very convenient way for constituents to discuss their concerns and ask questions about state government and pending legislation. They can participate from the comfort of their homes,” said Shea.
To connect to the Shea teleconference, call toll-free at 1-877-229-8493 and enter PIN number 15550 from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. People may choose to stay on the line and if they have a question, press *3 (star 3) on their telephone keypads to talk with Shea. Callers have complete control over how they choose to participate and how long they wish to stay connected.
“I encourage our local citizens to call in and become involved in the legislative process,” said Shea.
