Congressman Beto O’Rourke will hold a Town Hall at the Los Arcos Ballroom at 2205 W. Whitney Ln. in Odessa Monday from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. to meet with residents of South and West Odessa, and the farmers of the Permian Basin to discuss their issues and concerns and lay out his plan for better representation in Washington, DC.
O’Rourke has appeared on multiple national TV programs to discuss the most recent issues with the separation of children and parents of people coming through Mexico seeking asylum and has been a vocal opponent of the Administration's Zero Tolerance policy.
O’Rourke is in his second term as Representative for the 16th Congressional District in El Paso.
His platform includes Term Limits for Congress which is why he is running for Ted Cruz’s seat, as well as:
