Some members of Congress are getting an earful about health care reform and other topics at their town hall meetings this August break from the session.
Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers’ office released the first few days of her public schedule for the August break, and it starts with a discussion of health care and a town hall for seniors on Wednesday up in Colville.
She’ll be talking to the Colville Chamber and the Colville Rotary about health care reform at the Rotary Pavilion in City Park at noon.
She’ll also have a Seniors Town Hall at the Northeast Washington Ag Center, 317 W. Astor, at 3 p.m.
Colville is usually pretty friendly territory for McMorris Rodgers, so the shouting might be kept to a minimum.

Ms. McMorris-Rogers is making an appearance in Spokane August 19th at All Saints Lutheran Church, 314 S Spruce (Browne’s Addition) at 12:30. I doubt it will be a true town hall with questions from the crowd……she always has staff screening written questions only……but it might be better than the usual form letter from her that has nothing to do with the question asked or comment made.

Update on the McMorris-Rogers town hall…….I’m hearing it is an “invitation only” event and Lulubelle didn’t get an invitation. I wonder if she’ll be having one in Spokane thats open to the public. Probably too much to hope for from her camp.
