Town hall meetings Saturday
There’s a break in the Washington legislative action this weekend, so several Spokane-area senators and representatives will be back in their home districts to hold town hall meetings.
The break comes from the Legislature passing a major deadline for voting bills out of one chamber, and not yet reaching a key point in crafting the next biennium’s budget, which is the state economic forecast that comes out March 17.
Here’s a list of the Saturday meetings scheduled.
3rd Legislative District
Sen. Lisa Brown, Reps. Timm Ormsby and Andy Billig.
10 a.m., Northeast Community Center, 4001 N. Cook St.
2 p.m., Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture, 2316 W. First Ave.
6th Legislative District
Sen. Mike Baumgartner, Reps. Kevin Parker and John Ahern
10:30 a.m. Northwood Middle School gymnasium, 13120 N. Pittsburg St.

Let’s hope lots of people turn out to shout them down and not allow them to say anything like we learned from the Tea Party.
Now THAT’s democracy.
