CENTER – Rep. Josh Kail (R-Beaver/Washington) will host a telephone town hall meeting for residents of the 15^th Legislative District on Thursday, Sept. 3, beginning at approximately 5:30 p.m. The program will consist of an update on state-related issues and a question-and-answer session.

Residents with landlines who wish to participate should remain on the line until the meeting begins when they receive the call on Thursday afternoon.

“COVID-19 has impacted everyone, whether it’s the fear a parent has for his or her child not being able to play sports or the business owner who faces losing a business because of the virus,” Kail said. “My goal is to be a resource for everyone, and this call is a great opportunity to learn more about what’s being done legislatively, as well as the resources that are available.”

Residents who only have cell phones are invited to visit RepKail.com/broadnetsignup to sign up to be included on the call. As the Federal Communications Commission prohibits calls to cell phones without the owners’ consent, residents will not receive a call on their cell phones without taking this step.

By opting in, residents will be included on future telephone town hall meetings, but no more than three annually. The information will never be sold, and residents can manage their subscription at any time.

Residents who wish to call in may dial 877-229-8493 and use the ID code 118727.

There is also an option to join the call via webstreaming at https://video.teleforumonline.com/video/streaming.php?client=18727, which will allow listeners to submit questions via a chat feature.
