Dunnam meets with citizens in Bremond and Calvert
Local State Representative Jim Dunnam held two town hall meetings last Monday in Robertson County. He met with constituents at Bremond City Hall from 8:30 a.m. until noon and the Calvert Fire Department from 1 until 4 p.m. to discuss new laws and local concerns.
In Bremond, Dunnam met with City Mayor Rick Swick, County Sheriff Gerald Yezak, employees of the BISD, and many local residents. The major topics included public school funding and accountability requirements, the stimulus package, water drainage problems, road improvement projects, and emergency preparedness equipment. One local eighth grader, Anthony Wilganowski of Bremond Middle School, showed up to talk to Representative Dunnam about the health care debate in Washington D.C. for a class project.
"In spite of the rain, folks came by and talked about their concerns," said Jim. "It's really important to understand local issues, so I know how I can do a better job in Austin."
