FRANKFORT, Ky. (November 8, 2021): Senator Max Wise (R-Campbellsville) will be in Russell County for a town hall meeting next month.

The town hall will focus on issues relating to the upcoming 2022 Regular Session of the Kentucky General Assembly. Over the past several months, Senator Wise and fellow lawmakers have dedicated time to speak with stakeholders and experts on Kentucky’s most pressing issues and determine legislative priorities to address them. Interim committee meetings have focused on the direct and indirect impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and critical issues surrounding education, the state budget, health care, the economy, child welfare, and many others. 

“I am excited to be in Jamestown for this year’s Russell County town hall event. Speaking directly to citizens of the 16^th Senate District is something I always enjoy doing and benefit from as an elected official,” Senator Max Wise said. “The past two years have brought many challenges, and I am eager to be with local leaders and constituents to discuss them. Between the pandemic and our constitutional requirement to pass a 2-year state budget and potentially complete decennial redistricting, we have a busy 60-day session ahead of us. I am grateful for the efforts of Rhonda Redmon and the Russell County Chamber of Commerce to make this event possible. I look forward to seeing everyone in person.”

The town hall is scheduled for Thursday, December 9, 2021 at 12 noon Central Time at the Russell County Public Library, 535 North Main Street, Jamestown, KY 42629.

Per the Constitution of Kentucky, the 2022 Kentucky General Assembly will convene on Tuesday, January 4.
