When our Congressman Tom Garrett decided to host a Townhall we were thrilled to voice our concerns as his constituents. But when we learned that the event would be housed at a venue on Grounds that would cater to less than 300 constituents, we decided to reserve a larger venue and off it to the Congressman. The movement quickly gained support on social media and the movement #TomLetsTalk was born. On the day of the Town Hall we hosted a Democracy fair on Southlawn and a rally in the amphitheater. It was a great demonstration what democracy actually looks like: individuals uniting in an effort to communicate with their representatives.
