Merkley to Hold Southern Oregon Town Halls

Portland – Oregon’s Senator Jeff Merkley will hold
town halls in Coos, Curry, Jackson, Josephine and Klamath counties in late May.

He will update constituents on his work in Washington, DC
and answer their questions about the challenges facing Oregon and America.

“Advocating for Oregonians is my number one responsibility,”
Merkley said. “I invite all residents of Southern Oregon to meet me and discuss
what we need to do to get our nation back on track.”

Last year, Merkley pledged to hold town halls in each of
Oregon’s 36 counties every year.  He held his first town hall in his
native county, Douglas County.  Klamath, Jackson, Josephine, Coos and
Curry counties will be his tenth, eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth
town halls.
