Senator Dodd and Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro hosted a Town Hall Meeting at Griffin Hospital in Derby, CT on Saturday, May 16, 2009. Attorney General Richard Blumenthal and several other noted dignitaries were present, and briefly addressed the charged crowd of 250.
Joe the Voter had accepted Senator Dodds invitation to attend town hall meetings in New London and Derby. Joe finally got to say his piece in Derby on May 16, 2009.
Joes message was a plea to Senator Dodd. A plea to read the bill!
Too often in recent months Congress was in a rush to vote on something they did not read first. Joe chastised Dodd and DeLauro before expressing what we all have been feeling for a long time.
Thank you Joe. We look forward to hearing more of your wisdom and common sense in the future.
Joe the Voter speaks for us all. We have to hold our officials accountable. We're paying their salaries, the least they can do is read the bill they vote for!
