“I’ll be there to discuss issues currently before the United States Congress, and to hear from you on the issues that are important to you, your family, and our community,” Congressman Burgess said. “I certainly look forward to meeting you and hearing your views.”

Media interested in attending must notify Congressman Burgess’ Lewisville office by calling (972) 434-9700 so adequate space may be reserved for crew members, reporters, cameras, and additional equipment.
