“Over the past several weeks, I have heard from many of my constituents regarding General Petraeus and Ambassador Crocker’s report on the War in Iraq. By hosting a Tele-Townhall meeting, I was able to speak directly with those I am representing in Congress in order to find out how they feel about the War in Iraq and the Global War on Terrorism. After Wednesday night’s Tele-Townhall, I came away with a strong feeling that my constituents understand the progress that is being made in Iraq and that our troops need the opportunity to finish what they have started.” – Rep. Doug Lamborn (CO-5)

Using cutting edge technology, Congressman Lamborn hosted a live Tele-Townhall to open a dialogue and create an interactive conversation with his constituency to discuss the important issues our nation is facing and get feedback from this constituency on the issues that matter most to them.

These Tele-Townhall meetings will play a regular role in Lamborn’s outreach efforts. Lamborn is committed to keeping a close connection with his constituents through a variety of different outreach methods. By maintaining a strong level of communication with the people of Colorado’s Fifth District, Lamborn believes strong outreach communication will better inform his constituency of all the actions he has taken and accomplishment he has made in Congress. Most importantly, he believes it will enhance his ability to best service their interest as their representative through frequent and interactive dialogue.
