THURSDAY: Ammons, Faraci Invite Residents to Discuss Cost Hikes, Service Cuts in Local Town Hall

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Inviting residents from the Champaign-Urbana communities to share their thoughts on rising energy costs, social services cuts, and other issues, state Rep. Carol Ammons, D- Urbana, will host a town hall in collaboration with state Sen. Paul Faraci on Thursday, September 18 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in Champaign.

“This is a great opportunity for local residents to gather as we discuss Central Illinois’ most pressing issues, and dive into hyperlocal and state developments that impact our neighborhoods across U-C,” said Ammons. “It’s been an erratic year, led by careless decisions in Washington, where Illinois has had to gear up and make tough choices. I’m eager to sit with my neighbors to discuss our needs and values as we head into a fall session.”

Ammons and Faraci will host the event in the 4th floor North Room at the Illinois Terminal Building (45 E. University Avenue) in Champaign. The event is open to the public.
