Hi, this is Congressman ██████████████. I'm calling to invite you to join my telephone town hall taking place in just a few moments. Please stay on the line and you'll be automatically connected. If you have any questions after the event or if I can assist you in any way, please call my office at ████████████. I look forward to discussing current issues and any concerns you may have. To ask a question, please press Star three on your phone. If you'd like to sign up for our weekly newsletter, please press star6. To be added to our Do Not Call list, please press 9 now. We will be starting soon, so please stay on the line. Please hold while we connect you to your Access Live event. This Access Live event is currently in progress. Please note that this call may be monitored, recorded or rebroadcast. People on the line. So we'll go ahead and get started. We're going to go for about an hour. We'll try to answer as many of your questions as possible. Those that we can't get to. If you leave a message at the end, we'll go through all this at the end. But if you get to the end of the call and we haven't been able to call on you, you will be able to leave your question and we will answer it later. As they mentioned, you can press Star three at any time to ask a question. If you don't receive our weekly newsletter that we call the Ready Room, you can press Star six at any time to sign up for that. We're not allowed to spam you with it. You have to specifically request to be added to our list. And if you do that, it'll include a weekly recap of everything we do in ██████████. In fact, we're going over the one for last week and that should go out later tonight to recap all the things we did last week. Also, during the course of the hour, we'll ask hopefully three different poll questions. They're usually things that we want to get direct feedback from you on. And you know, it's one thing to get what we think is going on in the world from what's happening inside the Beltway or on Twitter, but there's nothing better than getting direct feedback from folks right back there in ███████. So I think we're approaching ████ on the call now. We're going to let that continue to build for a second. I'll give a little brief update on things that we've been doing here legislatively. Some of that is to kind of clue you in on things that you might want to ask questions about. And also, honestly, just to keep building the number of people on the call because we'd love to get as many as we can. And ideally, if some of you are sitting here for the whole hour, you don't want to hear us repeat ourselves from people joining that didn't know that we had already covered something. Last week we passed three appropriations bills out of the House. These were three that the Senate has already done. And then this week those were what we call cjs, Commerce, justice and Science. It's Department of Commerce, Department of Justice, all the science entities, Energy and Water, that's Department of Energy, the Army Corps of Engineers and all those things. Nuclear power, defense, nuclear stuff, our nuclear weaponry, also the Department of Interior. So three big bills last week we got those done. This week we're going to do. We're slated to do two more. Those are fsgg, that's Financial Services and General government. That's all the financial type stuff out there. And then State and Foreign Operations, which is everything related to the State Department. If we get those done, then we will have eight of the ██ bills passed and that would be out of both chambers at this point. So I think pretty well, we did three earlier and the Senate passed five. We're going to do. We're going to be pretty close. The only ones we're going to have left starting next week would be Defense, labor and Health, Homeland Security and then Transportation, Housing and Urban Development. The goal is, if you remember from our government shutdown that consumed a lot of the fall, we are on a continuing resolution to keep the government open through the end of this month. So we've got to get all ██ of these.
