Cross-partisan group town hall meeting invites Andy Barr

LEXINGTON, Ky. (ABC 36 NEWS NOW) – A grassroots group focused on democracy has invited U.S. Representative Andy Barr to a public town hall in Lexington.

Gathering for Democracy, a cross-partisan organization, announced that it is hosting a “People’s Town Hall” to discuss key issues such as the firing of federal workers and proposed Medicaid cuts. The group says it hopes to ask Rep. Barr questions directly on these topics.

The event is scheduled for Saturday, March 22 at 10 a.m. at the Kentucky Theatre on East Main Street. According to organizers, if Barr is unable to attend, they plan to send a video recording of the event to his office.
