Pocan to Invite Van Orden to Town Hall in Lafayette County

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Yesterday, U.S. Representative Mark Pocan (WI-02) announced that he will host a town hall in Belmont, Wisconsin on Saturday, March 8, at 11:00 am. Today, he formally invited Congressman Derrick Van Orden (WI-03) who represents the district immediately to the west of Lafayette County. Pocan invited constituents from both his district and the 3rd to hear their concerns about what is happening in Washington. 

“I just wanted to invite Derrick Van Orden to participate in this town hall, given he only lives an hour away and it’s just on the border of his district. From what I understand, he may have never had an open public town hall. It might just be that he doesn't know how to have one, so I thought it’d be the right thing to do and welcome him to participate in mine to see what one looks like given that many of his constituents may already be there.”

The town hall will be at: 

    Village of Belmont Community Building
    222 S Mound Ave 
    Belmont, WI 53510

Members of the media are also invited to attend.
