Johnson schedules town hall Monday in Cerro Gordo
CERRO GORDO – U.S. Rep. Tim Johnson, R-Urbana, will hold a town hall meeting at 5:30 p.m. Monday at the Cerro Gordo High School gymnasium.
It will be the latest in a series of more than a dozen town hall meetings the congressman has held since July. Other sessions have been held in Danville, Rantoul, Villa Grove, Gibson City, Champaign, Normal and other communities in the 15th Congressional District.
"I encourage the people of Piatt County and the surrounding area to attend and ask me their questions and tell me their thoughts," Johnson said. "We have had terrific turnout everywhere we've gone. People are concerned about the direction of their government, and they have every right to be. This is a participatory democracy, and you can't get the kind of government you want without participating."
