Jack Bergman Town Hall
Traverse Indivisible and Leelanau Indivisible have invited Representative Bergman to attend. He hasn't held a town hall in eight years so he may not attend, but we will hold the event with or without him. The event will be run in a town hall format, with lots of time planned for participants to ask questions of Rep. Bergman and to tell your stories about how the Trump administration has impacted issues that are important to you and our community.
The event will last 90 minutes, with a social gathering in the Dennos Museum afterwards. The press will be invited to the event, and we plan to have it both live-streamed and recorded.
