Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley invites his constituents to a town hall meeting (invitation) in East Portland. “Senator Merkley will update constituents on his work in Washington, D.C. and answer their questions and invite their suggestions about how to tackle the challenges facing Oregon and America. Also, if you are running into red tape accessing veterans’ benefits or dealing with Social Security or Medicare, or having trouble getting what you need from other federal agencies, I will have a constituent services worker on hand who may be able to help.”

I’d love to promote your awesome organization’s events as much as I promote the happenings at Milepost 5 Theater (where I live and serve on the board). Sunday evening is a free double feature brought to you by Psychedelic Psynema (FB event) featuring sci-fi classics The Empire Strikes back (6 pm) and Flash Gordon (8 pm). It’s a casual, family-friendly event, that should be a lot of fun.
