Those wanting to participate and guarantee that they are called on Tuesday evening may sign up on Congressman Connolly’s website at http://connolly.house.gov/telephone-town-hall/ before 2 pm on Monday.As in his past telephone town halls, Connolly will open the session with a short report on the recent actions in Congress, his legislative activities in the House, and other matters affecting Northern Virginia and the nation. The remainder of the hour-long session is dedicated to Connolly responding to questions asked by 11th CD residents on the call. Connolly’s 21 previous tele-town hall meetings have been very popular with constituents, who note that they don’t have to drive to the event, they can participate from the comfort of their homes, and they can bow out quietly when they are ready to leave the discussion. Generally, telephone town halls draw a much higher rate of participation than the turnout at physical town halls and other constituent meetings.Many participants are able to ask questions directly to Congressman Connolly. At the end of the hour-long meeting, those who were unable to ask a question and every other participant on the call are invited to leave a voice mail message with their question. Connolly and his staff respond to every question.Tuesday evening’s telephone town hall meeting is open only to residents of Virginia’s 11th Congressional District who live in Fairfax County, Prince William County, and the City of Fairfax. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
