Local Meet & Greets planned for U.S. Rep. Ratcliffe

Local Meet and Greets scheduled for 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. Monday, April 6 at Chiloso in Rockwall; and 8 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. at Wednesday, April 8 at The Well in Royse City. 

ROCKWALL/HEATH, TX (March 23, 2015) U.S. Representative John Ratcliffe (R-Heath) will host his first telephone town hall starting at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 26. A telephone town hall is a live, toll-free town hall meeting over the phone in order to give you an opportunity to ask questions about issues facing Congress and the federal government.

“The priorities of the people of our district are my priorities,” said Ratcliffe. “Every time I go to cast my vote on the floor of the House, I think of the 700,000 people I have the privilege of representing. For me to be the best congressman I can be, I feel that it’s important to hear directly from constituents and develop personal relationships with the people I represent. I’m grateful for every opportunity I have to hear from each and everyone one of them.”

“The 4th Congressional District of Texas is very large and includes 18 counties. Engaging with constituents requires a lot of time on the road, and traveling the district meeting the people I’m privileged to represent is the best part of my job,” Ratcliffe added.

U.S. Rep. Ratcliffe will also be launching a series of local events titled coffee with your congressman.

“Over the coming days I will be hosting the ‘coffee with your congressman’ events in Denison, Rockwall, Royse City, Texarkana, Bonham and Gilmer. If I’m not in a city near you this time, I will be next month.”

“That being said, I can’t be everywhere at once. That’s why I wanted to host this telephone town hall – the first in the history of this district – to let you know what I’m up to and what my priorities are. Similarly, it’s an opportunity for constituents to ask me questions directly.”
