WASHINGTON, D.C. – In order to hear from constituents about the issues that matter to them, Representative Derek Kilmer (D-WA) will hold a telephone town hall on Thursday, January 18, 2018 at 6:00 p.m. PT.

“As we start the new year, there is a lot of work that Congress needs to get done,” Rep. Derek Kilmer said. “It is vital to me to remain accessible and accountable, and it always helps to hear directly from folks in our region about what’s most important to them.”
