U.S. Senator Ron Wyden announced he will hold in-person town halls in Klamath, Lake, Harney, Grant and Wheeler counties from March 23 to 25, 2024.
Heading into these five town halls, Wyden will have held 1,076 town halls throughout Oregon — including 11 so far this year — in fulfillment of his pledge to hold at least one town hall each year in each of our state’s 36 counties.
“I promised to hold open-to-all town halls every year in every county so every Oregonian has the face-to-face opportunity to ask me questions, offer opinions and share ideas,” Wyden said in a news release.
“There is no substitute for those direct conversations in the true spirit of the ‘Oregon Way’ focusing on solutions, and I am very eager to hear from Oregonians in rural communities on this upcoming swing through these five counties,” said Wyden
The schedule for upcoming town halls are as follows:
- Klamath County, 5 p.m., Saturday, March 23, Oregon Institute of Technology, Mt. Mazama Conference Room, 2nd Floor of the College Union, 3201 Campus Dr, Klamath Falls
