Tim Scott reminds constituents of the Georgetown-Horry Town Hall to provide a Congressional update for First District residents Wednesday, June 8th

Rep. Tim Scott (SC-01) reminded his constituents of the Georgetown-Horry Town Hall to provide a Congressional update for First District residents. After his participation in the Military Appreciation Days parade on Saturday, May 28th, Scott said he is looking forward to meeting again with Grand Strand citizens.

The Town Hall meeting will be Wednesday, June 8th in the Burroughs & Chapin Auditorium on the Conway campus of Horry-Georgetown Technical College. This forum will provide area residents the opportunity to hear from their Congressional representative and get his responses to their inquiries. “While we rise to meet the challenges associated with the debt ceiling, our economy, and energy, I want area residents to know more about what we’re doing to limit the size and scope of the federal government,” Scott said, adding, “ I look forward to hearing my constituents’ perspectives and discussing the progress we’ve made thus far.” Areas of local interest will likely include I-73, our state’s ports, and tourism.

The 90-minute event will kick off at 6:00 PM and doors will open at 5:00. Scott will randomly answer questions submitted by attendees. “I firmly believe that a good economy makes all things possible,” Scott noted. “But, I recognize that many factors are responsible for creating such a positive environment. Together, we can move this country forward and realize our common goal of a smaller government with more individual liberty, states’ rights and significantly reduced federal spending.” For the Horry-Georgetown event, Scott will also accept questions sent to him via a Facebook message with the subject “townhall.” These questions will be combined with those submitted at the Town Hall for random selection.

Burroughs and Chapin Auditorium is part of the Horry-Georgetown Technical College’s Conway Campus located at 2050 Hwy 501 E.
