WU KICKS OFF NEW CONSTITUENT OUTREACH DRIVE


Congressman David Wu has announced the start of a new and ongoing effort to directly engage constituents on ideas to improve the economy and create jobs.

“After years of uncertainty, we are beginning to see real signs that Oregon’s economy is turning the corner – and the 1st Congressional District is leading the way,” said Wu. “At this crucial time, I want to hear from constituents with fresh ideas to encourage private-sector growth and job creation.”

Starting next week, Congressman Wu will be meeting face-to-face with individuals and small groups across the 1st District. His office today announced dates and locations of these “open office hours,” and is now taking meeting requests from the public.

Appointments are being scheduled on a first-come, first served basis. In order to accommodate as many people as possible, each meeting will be approximately five minutes in length.

In the coming weeks and months, Congressman Wu will also be holding a series of public town hall forums, small business roundtables, and industry worksite visits.
