The effects of the administration’s firings and freezes don’t stop at the boundaries of Congressional districts, and neither should you. It’s time to talk to your neighbors: https://docs.google.com/document/u/2/d/e/2PACX-1vTBVLQsxfQCemN0EAJwCJQgDVMas90Fia

"If you don't have town halls, if you don't have ways to communicate with constituents, you're not really doing your job," Pocan said. www.wkow.com/news/politic...

impossible to overstate the extent to which swing district Republican members of congress are at this point not only avoiding town halls but simply declining to appear in public at all

Trump and Musk's path of destruction doesn't respect congressional district boundaries, and neither should you! We have compiled a list of 🔴 districts next to 🔵 districts 👇 You can ask dems to *join* town halls in neighboring GOP districts and give EVERYONE a voice! docs.google.com/document/u/2...

Thank you @aoc.bsky.social! This is the way 💪 If you are in a 🔴 district and wondering how to organize an event that AOC or any other Dem Representative could join we have made a quick how-to guide and spreadsheet with relevant information 👇 docs.google.com/document/u/2...

Let's do it!

Absolutely sickened to see @jaredgolden.bsky.social voting with Trump 72% of the time. Some of these are such terrible votes. He needs to hold a town hall and answer to the good people of ME02. Like my MOM who knocked doors for him in the RAIN.

How fitting that Gingrich, the OG agency slayer, attended the joint address. Did you know he defunded a vital agency in the 90’s, crippling our ability to anticipatorily address things like pandemics, climate change, AI? Defunded agencies are difficult to resurrect. www.nbcnews.com/think/opinio...

@repbrendanboyle.bsky.social @congressmanboyle.bsky.social Your neighbors here in PA-01 would love to have you visit.

House Republicans have just been ordered to stop holding Town Hall meetings. They can run from their extreme agenda. We will never let them hide.

I’m ready to go on the road in California and start hosting town halls - in Republican districts. If GOP House members won’t hold town halls in their districts, we will.

This is a great, simple resource to help encourage Dem electeds to hold town halls in their neighboring red districts - look up your district and see who's next door! Give them a call! If you don't know your district look it up at ziplook.house.gov/htbin/findre...

Maybe @governorwalz.mn.gov?

@repbrendanboyle.bsky.social I'm your neighbor in PA-01. Would you consider holding a Town Hall here since our elected official lacks the courage to face the people he works for?

Seems like the swing districts PA-08, PA-10, and IA-01 have no adjacent blue districts. @housedemocrats.bsky.social who wants to hold Town Halls there during March recess? Check out the database that @firstbranchfriends.bsky.social made: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

It would be cool if House Democrats commit to hosting 1-2 town halls in neighboring red districts during March recess. So we made a thing. Check out our database of 🔴 districts next to 🔵 districts and keep us posted on your town hall adventures!

If anybody is interested in some missing member town hall action, Indivisible has a free field guide for you for the congressional recess that begins March 14.

Y’all if your member of Congress won’t have a town hall, have one anyway. Invite the media. Just ask Indivisible North Metro and Wright County Indivisible in Minnesota. www.hometownsource.com/sun_patriot/...

ok friends. we kept seeing people on here be like "wow, democrats should go host town halls in republican districts". so we made this thing to try to make that easier. find the 🔴 to your 🔵 or vice versa, and contact forms and call scripts for both:
