Adam Kitzinger-R-Teaparty

is having what he bills as a "community forum" tomorrow night in my district, at Rock Valley College. It is sponsored by the League of Women Voters. Questions have to be submitted ahead of time. I have five questions prepared, and documentation for those questions.

He has refused to hold a town hall for months. We need people there to keep him in line. We need to be sure he does not turn this into a PR event for himself. In my red district, I know he will try to do that. I am sure he will have plenty of his little tea party fans in attendance as well.

If any of you are in IL-16, please try to attend this event. The hall holds 600 people. The event is from 6:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. tomorrow night. If you can't get in, demonstrate outside.

We will try to hold his feet to the fire. I hope it works.
