Congressman Derek Kilmer will host a telephone town hall with residents of Washington’s 6th Congressional District next week.

It will be the ninth tele-town hall for Kilmer, a Gig Harbor Democrat who is in his second term in Congress.

“I hope folks are able to join my next telephone town hall,” said U.S. Rep. Kilmer. “I work for you, and I want to make sure that I continue to be accessible and accountable.”

The outreach event is planned for Wednesday, Sept. 16. Participants can ask Kilmer a question or leave a message with their comments.

Residents of the 6th District who would like to join the call can sign up at http://kilmer.house.gov/contact/townhall or send an email to kilmer.teletownhall@mail.house.gov with their name and phone number by 3 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 15.

Residents who sign up before the deadline will receive a phone call at 6:05 p.m. Sept. 16 inviting them to the town hall.
