This Week’s Event Will Focus on Many Issues Facing the Seventh District’s Families, Seniors, & Economy

WOODBRIDGE, V.A. — On Wednesday, August 2, U.S. Representative Abigail Spanberger will host an open, public telephone town hall focused on a range of issues facing Virginia’s families, seniors, and economy. The virtual event — Spanberger’s 50th town hall event — will also be livestreamed via video on Spanberger’s congressional website and Facebook page.

Spanberger will take questions directly from Virginians across Virginia’s Seventh District, gather their feedback, and answer their questions. Additionally, she will update attendees about her ongoing work to prevent a government shutdown, support Virginia’s agriculture priorities during 2023 Farm Bill negotiations, and assist Virginians who are facing challenges with federal agencies.

“My job is to listen to Virginians — and then work to deliver results. Wednesday night’s event will mark our 50th town hall event, and these conversations have always helped me better carry out this mission for the Virginians I represent,” said Spanberger. “I look forward to taking many questions from Virginians about their ideas, their concerns, and their hopes for the future.”

WHEN: 7:30pm-8:30pm ET, Wednesday, August 2, 2023
