U.S. Senator Ron Wyden will hold an on-line town hall on Friday.
A release from Wyden said the coronavirus crisis puts in-person community meetings on hold for the moment but he is looking forward to civil conversations that focus on finding productive solutions “that make sense for Oregonians”.
Those who want to join the conversation can go to: https://www.facebook.com/TownHallProject/posts/2560590620862367. Those wanting to watch the town hall can go to: https://www.facebook.com/TownHallProject/posts/2560590620862367.
The release said participation from front-line health care workers, “essential” workers, recently unemployed Oregonians, small business owners, gig workers, parents of children that are out of school, or someone who’s experienced COVID-19 in their family, is encouraged.
In-person town halls are postponed until there are clear-cut public health guidelines that an open-to-all meeting poses no unusual health risk for Oregonians, according to the release.
The on-line town hall will begin at 10:30 a.m.
