“Thanks to the more than 2,800 people who joined my telephone town hall yesterday,” Larsen said. “It was great to hear from so many of you concerned about the budget, jobs and protecting Medicare for seniors. We may not have agreed on every topic, but I appreciate the opportunity to discuss these important issues with you.”
Summary data:
2,889 constituents joined the call for an average of 12 minutes each.
More than 200 constituents stayed on the line for the full hour.
Larsen took 15 questions on topics including the budget proposals, Medicare, veterans, the Supreme Court’s deliberations on the Affordable Care Act, energy, the deficit, high speed rail, Larsen’s San Juan Islands National Conservation Area, and the proposed Gateway Pacific Terminal.
