Pasadena Lawmaker to Host Telephone Town Hall to Discuss Coronavirus Response

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Pasadena) will host a telephone town hall with Dr. Robert Kim-Farley from the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health and Los Angeles Unified School District Board Member Jackie Goldberg tonight to give constituents an update on how the federal government and Los Angeles are responding to the pandemic, and how local schools will handle distanced learning and re-opening.

“Families in our community are being tested in new and challenging ways during the coronavirus pandemic, as they struggle with rising unemployment, work and school closures, balancing work and family life, and trying to stay safe and healthy,” said Schiff. “As part of a continuing series of telephone town halls meant to complement virtual events online, I want to hear directly from constituents about what they are experiencing during the pandemic, and their suggestions on steps to improve our health and economy.”

According to a statement released by Schiff, a number of constituents will be automatically dialed in to the telephone town hall.

To join directly, constituents should call 855-408-1340.

Constituents may also watch the town hall on Rep. Schiff’s Facebook page (www.Facebook.com/RepAdamSchiff) or website (Schiff.house.gov/live).
