Holding a public town hall at Three Rivers Community College in Sikeston — April 2017

I’m on the road again, and this time I’m holding 10 public town halls that you’re invited to.

Last April, I traveled across the state, listening to and answering questions from Missourians, and holding myself, my work, and my votes in the Senate accountable to you. Especially when big policy debates are raging, holding public, in-person town halls is an important part of our democracy.

Details are below and I’ve shared this information with local news outlets to help spread the word too. If you’re not able to join me this week, have no fear — there will be many more to come this year.

Whether or not you agree with me — whether you’re a Republican, a Democrat, or an Independent — you and all Missourians are my bosses. You have every right to hold me accountable to that, and I want to hear from you.

Taking questions at Missouri Western at one of eight public town halls I held across the state last April.
