Tom Reed on Town Halls: ‘To Represent People You Have to Listen to People’

‘That’s a cornerstone of my belief, we’ll engage, even with people that are 100 degrees against what we stand for’

RUSH EXCERPT:
TUR: "A lot of your colleagues were shying away from the in person town hall and said they were doing it on Facebook. Why did you show up in person?"
REED: "Well, we’ve been doing town halls since I’ve been in Congress. It’s something we have done 200 times plus. Because, to represent people, you have to listen to people. And that’s a cornerstone of my belief, we’ll engage, even with people that are 100 degrees against what we stand for.
