During this period, Klein will host or participate in seven town hall meetings, to be held in the following cities: West Palm Beach; Davie; Plantation; Coral Springs; Ft. Lauderdale; Delray; and Lantana. During the town halls, the Congressman will give audience members an update on Congressional activities, including the progress he’s been making toward developing homeowner’s insurance reform legislation. Audience members will have the opportunity to ask Rep. Klein questions and share their concerns and ideas. The Congressman urges the public to attend the town hall meeting closest to their community. All town hall meetings are open the public.
