HARRISBURG – Rep. Clint Owlett (R-Tioga/Bradford) is inviting residents of the 68^th Legislative District to join him for a telephone town hall meeting on Thursday, Nov. 16, at 7 p.m. to discuss a variety of state and local issues.

“This is a great opportunity to talk about the issues that matter most to us, both in Harrisburg and here at home,” Owlett said. “I will share information about a variety of topics, including the state budget and education issues, as well as ongoing efforts to bring rural broadband to our communities.”

A telephone town hall meeting works very much like a traditional town hall meeting, but because people can participate from the comfort of their own homes, these meetings typically draw hundreds of people rather than just dozens.

Calls inviting people to participate will start going out about five minutes before the telephone town hall meeting is to begin. Participants can simply stay on the line to listen, or press *3 if they’d like to make a comment or ask a question.

People who miss the call or don’t receive one are invited to call in, toll-free, at 1-877-229-8493 and then enter the code 118374. The call will also be streamed at https://video.teleforumonline.com/video/streaming.php?client=18374
