I had the opportunity to meet with my Representative, David Edwards, a couple of weeks ago at an informal meet and greet he hosted at the Insomnia Coffee Company in
Hillsboro. I had never done anything like this before, so I didn’t know what to expect and was a little nervous. I proudly wore my OCCV t-shirt and ordered a chai tea latte before sitting down. I was one of the first people there and we all introduced ourselves. Some people were there with specific agendas while I was mostly there to listen and learn. I gave him the healthcare postcard and mentioned that I was with OCCV and he seemed familiar with our group.
He answered people’s questions and was very knowledgeable about all the topics. Overall, it was a good experience and I encourage other people to take advantage of talking to their legislators.
