Sen. Steve Litzow invites residents of the 41st District to join him for a telephone town-hall meeting at 7 p.m., Thursday, Jan. 16.

The one-hour forum will be largely question-driven by participants. They will have the opportunity to discuss issues before the Legislature during the 2014 session.

Many residents will receive a call inviting them to join as the meeting begins and may simply stay on the line to participate. Or anyone can call in toll-free by dialing 1-877-229-8493 and entering the code 110085.

Any questions before or after the event may be directed to Litzow’s office via email, steve.litzow@leg.wa.gov, or phone at (360) 786-7641. Participants are also invited to submit questions in advance.
