Tim Ryan plans May 29 town hall meeting at YSU

YOUNGSTOWN — U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan will have a town hall next Tuesday at Youngstown State University’s DeBartolo Hall, Room 132, to answer questions from his constituents.

The doors will open at 5 p.m. and the town hall will run from 5:30 to 7 p.m.

The room can hold just over 200 people; a town hall Ryan had last year in Akron attracted about 150 people, said Michael Zetts, a Ryan spokesman.

People coming to the town hall will be given a ticket with a number and if their number is called, they can ask Ryan a question, Zetts said.

Ryan of Howland, D-13th, wants to do four town halls in his district a year, Zetts said.

“He’s a member of Congress and he wants to make himself available to his constituents for questions,” Zetts said.
