Bynum to host town hall Saturday, but Merkley events postponed

Published 4:12 pm Sunday, April 6, 2025

The town hall events U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., scheduled for Jefferson and Crook counties on Saturday have been postponed due to a change in the U.S. Senate voting schedule.

U.S. Rep. Janelle Bynum, D-Ore., will still hold her Deschutes County town hall at 1 p.m. Saturday at Sisters High School’s gymnasium. Merkley had been set to join the event.

The town halls in Grant and Wheeler counties on Sunday remain as scheduled.

An updated event schedule will be shared in the coming weeks.
