**Register for the virtual town hall here**
Dear Friends,
I will be hosting a telephone town hall tomorrow, Thursday, October 16th at 6:30 PM to discuss the ongoing government shutdown and how my office can assist you during this uncertain time. You can register and submit your questions HERE.
This shutdown began after the Senate rejected a government funding plan. Democrats in the House and Senate came together to support an effort to keep government open, reverse health care cuts President Trump signed into law, and extend health care tax credits that protect families from rising premiums.
Leading up to the shutdown, President Trump encouraged Republicans in Congress to ‘not even bother’ negotiating. Speaker Johnson ended up canceling votes for the week – leaving no opportunity to come to an agreement.
I will keep working to re-open government and come to an agreement to protect access to health care and lower costs. I look forward to discussing these important issues with you. I hope to have you on the line.

My office has also prepared a web page with Frequently Asked Questions about the shutdown. You can always contact us at 860-278-8888.
