Congressman Andy Kim to Hold
Town Hall in Ocean Gate

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Andy Kim announced that he will host a town hall meeting in Ocean Gate on Wednesday, January 22nd at 12:30pm.

“The issues I heard about during our fifteen town halls in 2019 drove real action in Congress,” said Kim. “From seniors concerned about the cost of prescription drugs, to families struggling with opioid and addiction issues, my work in Congress begins with listening in New Jersey. I look forward to another robust conversation with our neighbors across Burlington and Ocean Counties and will bring those insights back Washington to fight for New Jersey families.”

This will be the sixteenth town hall held by Congressman Kim during the 116th Congress, and part of a monthly series to allow the Congressman to hear directly from constituents throughout New Jersey’s Third District. The Congressman, focused on issues impacting the lives of people in Burlington and Ocean Counties, will provide an update on efforts to lower prescription drug costs, address the opioid epidemic and support New Jersey’s veterans.

Congressman Kim will also be joined by Tiffany Muller, President and Executive Director of End Citizens United Action Fund, a group dedicated to ending the influence of money in politics. Kim and Muller will provide an update on efforts to reverse the impact of the Citizens United Supreme Court Case, which was decided 10 years ago this week.

Congressman Kim was a vocal advocate for the passage of H.R. 1, a bill that passed the House that strengthens ethics laws and puts political power back in the hands of the people.

“I want to thank Mayor Kennedy of Ocean Gate for opening his community center for our town hall,” said Kim. “I also want to thank Tiffany Muller for joining us. We’re holding this town hall on the 10th anniversary of the Citizens United decision to highlight the dangers of big money in politics, and to lay out tangible next steps to root out corruption in Washington. These town halls are about giving voice to the people, but we can only truly do that when we take big money out of the equation.”
