Congressman G. K. Butterfield (NC-01) announced four additional stops on his district-wide “Jobs and Justice” Tour. He will travel across the First Congressional District where he will host constituents for open dialogues about issues they face in the community. Butterfield is also conducting a survey on his website to capture the views of his constituents.
“I will listen to the concerns of constituents and take their recommendations back to Washington, D.C. where I’ll work with my congressional colleagues and the Obama Administration to find commonsense solutions,” said Butterfield. “I look forward to continuing my strong partnership with residents of the First District to ensure they are equipped with the tools and have access to opportunities to achieve the American Dream.”
At the conclusion of the tour, Congressman Butterfield will host a State of the District address on April 5, 2016 to discuss the district’s progress in recent years and outline his vision related to job creation and justice for all.
Butterfield’s “Jobs and Justice” Tour began March 7, 2016 with a listening session in Durham where he heard from veterans, caregivers, and veterans service organizations about issues impacting North Carolina veterans including access to healthcare, help for returning service members, and veterans’ benefits.
