Meet Congressman Kilmer on Aug. 9 at North Kitsap Auditorium

POULSBO — U.S. Rep. Derek Kilmer, D-Gig Harbor, will meet with residents in a town hall meeting 5:30-7 p.m. Aug. 9 in the North Kitsap Auditorium, 1881 NE Hostmark St., Poulsbo.

It’s one in a series of town hall meetings Kilmer is hosting this week so he can hear directly from residents of the 6th Congressional District. Town halls are open to the public. Attendees will hear an update on Congress and will have the opportunity to ask questions.

In 2016, Kilmer hosted seven town hall meetings across the district. So far in 2017, he’s hosted four. He also consistently hosts telephone town halls and open office hours, and meets with constituents on ferries, public buses, and at their places of employment.

“I work for the people I represent and it’s important to me that I get opportunities to hear directly from you,” Kilmer said in an announcement of the latest town hall series. “I hope folks will be able to join one of my upcoming town halls to share their ideas and concerns.”

Doors open at 5 p.m. Contact the district office, 253-272-3515 if you require hearing devices or other special accommodations.
