At 7 p.m. Tuesday, June 21, many households across the 14th Legislative District will receive a phone call from State Sen. Curtis King, R-Yakima, with an invitation to participate in a live, interactive telephone town hall meeting. During the hour-long event, participants will learn about the 2011 regular and special legislative sessions and share their thoughts and questions with the senator.

Only those with landlines will receive a phone call, so residents wanting to participate via cell phone or from somewhere other than their home must call toll-free 1-877-229-8493. The access code is 15281. The number will be available about 10 minutes before the town hall begins.

King said this is a great way for him to connect with constituents and convenient for them to stay involved in state government. He added he’s looking forward to getting their input on this particularly challenging session and hopes as many people as possible will participate.
