April 7 event will be final one on his tour

U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden will hold a town hall meeting in Phoenix at 1 p.m. Friday, April 7, at Phoenix High School’s Rose Street Theater, 745 N. Rose St., Phoenix, according to a news release.

The event is free and open to anyone.

Other stops on the town hall tour will include Wasco, Sherman, Morrow, Umatilla, Gilliam, and Douglas counties. The Jackson County engagement will be the final leg of his visit, which kicks off April 1.

“Open-to-all town halls shorten the distance between Oregon and Washington D.C. by providing opportunities for any Oregonian to ask questions, suggest good ideas and work toward solutions to challenges facing communities throughout our state,” Wyden said in the release. “Whether they’re in the Gorge, Eastern Oregon or Southern Oregon, I encourage people of all ages to attend one of these community gatherings that show the rest of the country how democracy is alive and thriving in every nook and cranny of the state.”
