Lawmakers around the country are facing early constituent concerns at town hall meetings about cuts made by President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency.
The House of Representatives is in recess this week, giving lawmakers one of their first opportunities to interact face-to-face with constituents back home and get an idea of the public sentiment toward the Trump administration’s efforts to shrink the size of the federal government.
Representatives from Georgia, Oregon, Oklahoma and Ohio were among those who received backlash and concern this week from attendees and callers.
