Have you been wondering when Congressman Meehan will be hosting a town hall? Do you have questions about his votes on critical issues like Medicare and taxes? Well now is your chance. Congressman Pat Meehan has set up a Twitter account to take questions from his constituents.
Can you join us for a virtual rally tomorrow, Tuesday, June 21, between 12pm and 2pm by tweeting a question on Medicare?
We want to ask Congressman Meehan the hard questions. He didn’t ask what we thought on Medicare before voting on the Ryan budget bill, so now is our chance. Can you join the rally by tweeting a question on Medicare to Congressman Meehan?
Please be sure to use the #AskPat hashtag so that everyone joining us in this event can see each other’s questions. Just click on the #AskPat hashtag or search for #AskPat at Twitter to see what people are saying. Also, the Congressman requests that people who send him questions include their name and the town they live in. If you run out of room, you can shorten some words easily. For example, you – u, be – b, for – 4, to/too – 2, and – &.
If you don’t have a twitter account, it’s easy to learn and only takes a minute to set up. Go to twitter.com. Set up an account. Be sure to search for PennAction and follow us. Then tweet a question to Congressman Meehan as part of the virtual rally tomorrow from 12pm – 2pm!
