“I work for the people I represent and it’s important to me that I get the opportunity to hear directly from you,” said Rep. Kilmer. “I hope folks will be able to join the town hall on Monday to learn more about COVID-19, my ongoing efforts to ensure the federal government steps up, and to get questions answered about the COVID-19 threat.”
