Greg Walden announced that he has held 21 town hall meetings during the first three months of 2015, at least one in all 20 counties of the Second District (plus a second in Baker County). Walden held 25 town hall meetings in 2014, and has held 94 in the Second District since the beginning of 2012.“Thank you to the hundreds of Oregonians who turned out to my town hall meetings—from Grants Pass to Enterprise, Hood River to Ontario. In a district as large as ours, these meetings require a lot of ‘windshield time’ between stops but they help me keep my to-do list fresh as I travel back to the Nation’s Capital each week. They are another great way I keep in close touch with Oregonians, along with regular telephone town halls, phone calls, Facebook and Twitter messages, mail, and email,” Walden said.Walden, who lives in Hood River with his wife, described the wide variety of questions and concerns he hears as these forums. “While there are many national and global issues that come up—from turmoil in the Middle East to balancing the federal budget—I also get input on solving local problems here at home. Making sure our veterans have access to quality health care, improving management of federal forests, ensuring access to public lands, and providing water and power for job creation all remain top priorities for me,” he said.“I plan more town halls and community meetings in the weeks and months ahead. Oregonians can also keep in touch with me by sending an email through my website, friending me on Facebook, or following me on Twitter. Whether you want to let me know your views on pending legislation, ask a question about my work, or need help with a federal agency like the VA or Social Security Administration, I’ll do all I can to get results for you,” Walden said.Second District residents can get in touch with Walden via his website at www.walden.house.gov, find him on Facebook at www.facebook.com/repgregwalden or follow him on Twitter at @repgregwalden. Walden also maintains full time offices in Medford, Bend, Hood River, and La Grande. His offices can be reached toll free from the 541 area code at 800-533-3303. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
