I have to go out of town to see my rep since he isn't coming to my town, in fact I have to drive 3 hours to go see him. Should I be banned from town hall meetings since I am not from the town where he is choosing to speak? My son in had to drive 2 hours to see his rep at a town hall, because his rep was only doing 2 town halls and none in his town. Yes, sometimes people have to drive to see their rep because reps don't have meetings in every town.

By "out of towners" he means people who don't live in the district
No one is talking about people who live in the congressional district and have to drive a good distance to their rep's townhall meeting.
My current rep and her predecessor held townhall meetings via conference calls.
