Congressman McEachin’s Coffee Townhall
20 Monday Feb 2017
Posted in 4th Congressional District
I really wish I could get off work to do this. I will have to make my constituent wishes known at another opportunity.
I understand, Chris. I was a little surprised by the time, but guess he may be fitting in other town halls in other places that day.
I was there today. A very enthusiastic overflowing crowd. Asked about ACA, help for Petersburg, immigrant round up by ICE, LGTB issues, and more. Congressman McEachin answered each question to the best of his ability. We have a good man working for us. He emphasized calling Senators and Congressmen (not just yours) to voice your opinion.
I was there as well, Mark. I noted most of the questions asked and hope to get a note about it out tomorrow. Other obligations tonight. I was pleased to be in such good company. I love Demolition Coffee and thought the setting was just right.
I went to the Townhall Meeting too. There was an enthusiastic standing room only crowd. McEachin supports saving the environment. This is an important concern for Virginians.
Thank you, Johanna. If my memory serves he said that it is the most important issue of the 21st century. Without our Earth there is nothing else. Or something like that. I was impressed with the diversity in the room, age, ethnicity, and I saw some women with head coverings. It seemed to me that everyone in the room felt safe, felt empowered, felt represented.
