Friday is Rep. Eric Massa review day

Rep. Eric Massa is my Congress Representative. He held a Town Hall meeting in Mendon, NY and it was attended by over 500 people. (Wow!) I have collected a few of the reports on this meeting and Massa's opinions on HR 3200.

Politico - calls the meeting "Fear and Loathing at New York Town Hall." The number of attendees forced Massa and his staff to move the meeting outdoors.

Democrat&Chronicle - this blogger reports that the Town Hall was extremely civil and Massa did a great job at encouraging democratic discussion and respectful disagreement.

StarGazzette - here (in Corning, NY) Massa is quoted as saying this bill will hurt Medicare recipients.

CNSNews - review some of the opinions of Dem representatives in predominantly GOP districts.

I have heard that Rep. Massa has a masterful staff that advises him (from some of my optics friends who deal with Congress) and he wants to make the best decisions for his constituents that put him in office. Knowing where he stands is important for me.

Have a great Friday, everyone!

TTFN!

Great Reporting Optix. I am glad the meeting was very civil. The media has a way of lying about a lot of things.
