Congressman Derek Kilmer will discuss the American Rescue Plan, an emergency legislative package passed by Congress and signed into law by President Joe Biden, during a telephone town hall meeting at 5:10 p.m. Tuesday.
The legislation aims to fund vaccinations, provide immediate and direct relief to families impacted financially by the pandemic and help get children back into school.
Umair A. Shah, MD, MPH, Washington state Secretary of Health, will join the conversation to discuss the COVID-19 vaccination effort in Washington state and to answer questions.

“Even though we can’t meet in person right now, it’s important for me to hear from as many of the folks I represent as possible,” Kilmer said.
”I hope people will be able to join the town hall to learn more about the American Rescue Plan, my ongoing efforts to ensure the federal government steps up to lend a hand to families and local employers, and to get your questions answered.”
