U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden will hold town halls on June 30 in Baker and Umatilla counties, and on July 1 in Sherman County.
In fulfillment of his pledge to hold at least one town hall each year in each of the state’s 36 counties, Wyden has held 942 town halls statewide – including 29 so far this year.
Wyden’s Umatilla County town hall will be at 4 p.m., Sunday, June 30 at the Bob Clapp Theatre, Pioneer Hall, Blue Mountain Community College, 2411 N.W. Carden, Pendleton.
“Heading into the Fourth of July when America celebrates our independence, these upcoming open-to-all town halls in Baker, Umatilla and Sherman counties put democracy into action locally,” said Wyden, who this year won a second straight MVP award from the Town Hall Project for holding the most town halls of any senator in 2018.
“I look forward very much to throwing open the doors of government and hearing from residents of Eastern Oregon,” he said. “Listening to Oregonians in every nook and cranny of our state is essential to finding solutions that work.”
