Three town halls scheduled for this weekend by Oregon Senator Ron Wyden have been postponed.
The meetings were set to take place in Baker, Union and Gilliam counties, and will be moved to a later date in the interest of minimizing potential health risks from COVID-19.
Wyden said at this time it is prudent to be proactive and postpone them until there are clear-cut guidelines that an open-to-all-public meeting poses no unusual health risk for Oregonians.
