Appreciating Town Hall Meetings
Hon. Eddie Bernice Johnson
Since the start of this 115th session of Congress, you have probably seen multiple news stories about town halls across the country. For instance, just this past week, California U.S. Representatives Duncan Hunter and Darrell Issa hosted town hall discussions that were rather lively. But not every town hall is alike. In order to keep in touch with my constituents, I hosted a TeleTown hall earlier this month in which over 3,000 people dialed-in to discuss issues most important to them. From those callers, we fielded a number of excellent questions whose topics ranged from Planned Parenthood funding, to legislative measures to help the mentally ill, to political involvement on a grassroots level. Again, I want to thank all of those kind constituents who
2
participated providing excellent questions and political curiosity. My only regret is that I did not have more time to spend with all of you. If you did not have the opportunity to call in, you can find audio highlights of the conversation on my webiste. It is important to understand the purpose of holding town halls. A town hall meeting is an event that gives a representative the opportunity to speak directly with his or her constituents. It is mutually beneficial for the representa-
Party turned out in unprecedented numbers following the 2008 presidential election of Barack Obama, now activists are organizing in response to President Trump and his Administration’s initiatives. They are also turning out in significant numbers to these town halls across the country. I would like to note, however, that town halls are not always confrontational in nature. Often, they can be conciliatory or celebratory—they are not always argumentative in nature. Regardless of the composition of town

Now, unfortunately, town halls are most featured and discussed during times of great controversy. In the same way that the Tea
halls, they are ultimately positive events, because allowing citizens to vocalize their desires directly to the people responsible for representing them. As previously mentioned, the number one responsibility of the representative during a town hall is to listen to their constituents. From what I observed during our
issuu.com/bitsandpieces
conversation last week, a primary concern expressed by the people in district 30 was what is going to happen with their healthcare when the Affordable Care Act (ACA), or “Obamacare,” is repealed. Many are afraid they may lose healthcare coverage or their premiums will rise. It hurts my heart to say that, with the Republicans’ current healthcare replacement bill, that very well may happen. In a district report that my office released last week, we point out that 301,800 people in the 30th district who have employer sponsored health insurance could lose important consumer protections – like the prohibition on annual and lifetime limits and the prohibition on coverage exclusions for preexisting health conditions – if the ACA is repealed. As noted, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released numbers showing that 24 million people have the potential to lose their health insurance if the new Republican led healthcare bill, American Health Care Act (AHCA) is adopted. Because you called and expressed your concerns, I must reassure you of one thing—I will join my colleagues in fighting this replacement legislation that will ultimately take away many Americans’ healthcare. I am determined to fight in your best interest in the upcoming weeks. MARCH 24, 2017
62 YEARS OF SERVING THE CHURCH AND COMMUNITY Congresswoman Johnson Releases Statement on the President’s Proposed Budget Cuts WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congresswoman Johnson released the following statement afDebra Blair Abron ter the president released his FY2018 budget proposal: “Today, President Trump released his budget proposal for the 2018 fiscal year. His budget proposal is devastating and troubling to working class Americans. “It is becoming clear that the president lacks the fundamental knowledge of how to appropriate funds properly in order to help sustain our economy and build up our lower and middle income class.
spending, the aid provided to afterschool programs and teacher trainings, as well as aid to low-income and minority college students.
“Additionally, an undue burden of responsibility will be placed on the local government to fund new transit projects and social programs to assist with job search, legal advice and housing needs that will not be met in the President’s budget. Only three agency’s budgets were increased – U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Department of Defense. Our nation deserves better.”
“Although I believe it is important to protect our nation and our military’s strength, it is not the job of the working class to carry such a heavy financial burden by paying for the physical construction of a border wall. And a physical construct is not what we’ll depend on for our democracy to flourish and be efficient. Americans would like to continue contributing to our economy and believe in its sustainability.” “This budget should protect all Americans, not just support Donald Trump’s campaign rhetoric. I hope that Congress will review this budget and be able to protect the interests of all Americans. ”
