Congressman David Price will host a town hall meeting Saturday afternoon at East Chapel Hill High School from 1 until 2:30 to take questions and hear concerns from residents of North Carolina’s Fourth Congressional District.

It’s part of a series of town halls that Price began on March 4 in Durham and Knightdale and continued on March 6 in Cary.

In Cary, Price received questions about the repealing and replacing of the Affordable Care Act and about budget cuts to programs like the Environmental Protection Agency.

Those topics will likely come up again Saturday, along with questions about immigration and President Donald Trump’s Muslim ban.

Price announced March 8 that he is co-sponsoring a bill to repeal this ban.

NAACP branches across the state demanded that issues like these be addressed. They sent out a letter February 27 calling for all U.S. Congressmen representing North Carolina to hold town halls.

But it’s not just North Carolina. Town halls are popping up all over the country in response to questions and concerns from the community regarding President Trump’s promises and policies.

And in some places these town halls have gotten particularly heated.

So heated that some North Carolina Republicans, including Senators Thom Tillis and Richard Burr, have refused to hold them. They say telephone town halls, where they take calls from constituents, are more effective.

But Rep. George Holding of Raleigh said these town halls are simply “opportunities to protest.”

Price will round out his series of town halls at Broughton High School in Raleigh on March 13.
