Requires Members of Congress to hold at least 12 public town halls each year in their districts.
This bill would make sure your elected officials hold at least 12 in-person town halls every year in your district. It means you would have more chances to speak with your Senator or Representative, as these meetings would be open to everyone and follow clear rules for notice and accessibility. This would take effect at the start of the next Congress after the bill becomes law.
Today, Members of Congress decide if and when they hold town halls, with no federal requirement for regular meetings. If this bill passes, they would be required to hold at least 12 in-person town halls annually, with specific rules for public access, notice, accessibility, and a minimum duration of 1 hour for each meeting.
