This year CIOGC has initiated a monthly Congressional Town Hall series. The goal of this series is to have an open dialogue between a district’s elected Congressman/woman and its constituency. During these monthly Town hall meetings, we invite one Congressman/woman and discuss the issues that affect the community directly. We also take an opportunity to learn more about the Congressman/woman’s agenda, projects that they are currently working on. Legislative bills that they are supporting, any internship/fellowship programs where our community can partner with their office.
