10-a.m until Noon at the Lied Public Library – 100 East Garfield Street, in Clarinda.
1:30-p.m. to 3:30-p.m. — Tabor City Hall – 626 Main Street, in Tabor.
Residents of Iowa’s Third District who are interested in meeting with Congressman Young are encouraged to attend any of the Open Office Hours events. Individual, ten-minute meetings to discuss personal concerns, opinions and possible casework needs will take place with constituents in attendance on a first-come, first-serve basis. Participants must be residents of one of the 16 counties of Iowa’s Third Congressional District, which is comprised locally, of Adair, Adams, Cass, Dallas, Fremont, Guthrie, Madison, Mills, Montgomery, Page, Pottawattamie, Ringgold, Taylor, and Union Counties. .
Constituents with further questions regarding Congressman Young’s Open Office Hours events should contact Congressman Young’s Des Moines Constituent Services Office by telephone at (515) 282-1909.
