Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore. has scheduled an in-person town hall for Saturday morning in Lincoln City as part of his first round of community meetings halls in 2023. Merkley plans to hold a town hall for each of Oregon’s 36 counties.
The Lincoln County meeting is at 10 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 14 at Taft High School, 3780 S.E. Spy Glass Ridge Drive, Lincoln City.
“I hold a town hall for every Oregon county every year because there is simply no substitute to hearing directly from folks about the ideas and priorities that matter most to them and their communities,” Merkley said in a news release announcing the meeting.
Since taking office in 2009, Merkley has held town halls in every Oregon county each year, although many were online during the two years of the coronavirus pandemic.
