The tour will be composed of public listening sessions with residents across Tennessee\u2019s Fourth Congressional District. This tour is part of an ongoing effort by the congressman to solicit ideas and opinions from his constituents on important policy issues being debated in Washington, D.C.\n\n\u201cHaving a chance to meet with and hear from constituents is a critical part of being a Member of Congress and is a top priority of mine,\u201d said Rep. DesJarlais. \u201cWhether it is through daily conversations with individuals on Facebook or sitting down with business leaders during my Tennessee Job Creators Tour, I look to the people of Tennessee\u2019s Fourth Congressional District for guidance as to how to best represent them in Congress. Fortunately for me, I\u2019m blessed with a well-informed, vocal constituency that has presented me with no shortage of ideas on how we can get our nation back on the right fiscal track and start creating jobs. I look forward to people coming out and continuing the conversation.\u201d\n\nListening to Tennessee Tour future dates:\n\nAugust 24th\n\nListening Session in Dunlap, TN\n\n9:30-10:15 a.m. CST\n\nSequatchie County Courthouse\n\n22 Cherry Street, #4, Dunlap, Tennessee 3732\n\nListening Session in Pikeville, TN\n\n10:45 \u2013 11:30 a.m. CST\n\nBledsoe County Courthouse\n\n3150 Main Street, Pikeville, Tennessee 37367\n\nListening Session in Sparta, TN\n\n3:45-4:30 p.m. CST\n\nWhite County Courthouse\n\n1 E Bockman Way, Room 205, Sparta, Tennessee 38583\n\nAugust 25th\n\nListening Session in Huntsville, TN\n\n1:00- 1:45 p.m. EST\n\nScott County Office Complex\n\n2845 Baker Hwy, Huntsville, Tennessee 37756\n\nAugust 26th\n\nListening Session in Manchester, TN\n\n2:00-2:45 p.m. CST\n\nCoffee County Administrative Plaza\n\n1329 McArthur Street, Manchester, Tennessee 37355\n\nAugust 30th\n\nListening Session in Loretto, TN\n\n2:00-3:00 p.m. CST\n\nMustang Country Cafe\n\n213 2nd Avenue South, Loretto, Tennessee 38469\n\nNote: All of the town hall meetings are free and open to the public/press.
