Watt meetings for senior citizens next week
U.S. Rep. Mel Watt will host several town hall meetings for senior citizens next week.
ěThere are a number of important issues that we have been dealing with in Congress that directly affect seniors such as the reauthorization of the Older Americans Act, benefits of the Affordable Care Act and entitlement reform,î said Watt, a Democrat whose 12th District includes part of Rowan County.
ěAs always, I look forward to having a dialogue with my constituents in the 12th District to provide information to them and hear their perspectives on these and other issues of concern to them,î he said.
The meetings will be:
Tuesday, 10-11:30 a.m., Mallard Creek Recreation Center, 2530 Johnston Oehler Road, Charlotte.
Wednesday, 10-11:30 a.m., Goler CDC Family Enrichment Center, 620 Patterson Ave., Winston-Salem.
Thursday, 1:30-3 p.m., Culler Roy Senior Center, 600 N. Hamilton St., High Point.
