Rep. Mark Hargrove, R-Covington, is inviting residents of the 47th District to participate in an hour-long telephone town hall at 6:30 p.m. next Wednesday, May 8.
To take part in the forum, residents can call in toll-free 1-800-761-6258. On the call, participants can listen in to the conversation and press the star (*) symbol on their phones to ask a question at any time during the hour.
“In addition to the local meetings I will host, this call is another way to connect with constituents, answer questions and hear their thoughts on legislative issues,” Hargrove said in a press release. “While it is disappointing the state budget is still a work in progress, I would like to give folks an update on where things stand and the budget proposals being negotiated. I look forward to listening to all the feedback. It truly helps me do my best work for our district.”
Residents unable to participate in the call can contact Hargrove directly at (60-786-7918 or mark.hargrove@leg.wa.gov. Constituents can also leave a message for all three of their state lawmakers by calling the toll-free legislative hotline at 1-800-562-6000.
The 2013 regular session adjourned April 28. The state budget is still in negotiations, so the Legislature will reconvene May 13 for a special session to address the 2013-15 spending plan.
