Larson to Host "Seniors Listening Tour" Across the District
First Three Stops in Bristol, Berlin, and Windsor
Hartford, CT- Today, U.S. Congressman John B. Larson (CT-01) announced his plan to reach out to seniors across the first district by visiting senior centers and hearing directly from them on issues ranging from the economy to Social Security. Congressman Larson's "Seniors Listening Tour" will kick off in mid-February with the first stop at the Bristol Senior Center.
"When it comes to our seniors, I have fought to strengthen their retirement security and supported legislation that will grow our economy today and in the future. I can best serve our seniors and the residents of the district by listening to their comments and applying it to my work on their behalf in Washington and in Connecticut," said Congressman Larson.
At each stop, Larson will also distribute his "Seniors Update" pamphlet which includes information on how his office can assist seniors with Social Security and Medicare issues and an update on legislation of interest to seniors.
