“The real concerns of our neighbors deserve real discussion, so I am calling on Speaker Ryan and Randy Bryce to take a break from the national press circuit and come back home to discuss local issues,” Myers said.

Paul Ryan has not hosted a town hall meeting in his district for nearly two years, but is participating in an invite-only town hall hosted by Jake Tapper on Monday, August 21st.

“Speaker Ryan is afraid of being held accountable for his policies, and I would be too if I tried to rip health insurance away from 48,900 of my neighbors,” Myers continued.

Since announcing his campaign on June 19th, Randy Bryce has traveled from coast-to-coast for events in Los Angeles, New York, Washington, D.C., and Atlanta. Despite multiple requests, Bryce has refused to participate in a debate or public forum with his primary opponent.

“It is in our best interest as candidates and in the best interest of Democrats in the district to have a robust primary debate so we are prepared to challenge the most powerful career politician in Washington. We already have a Representative concerned with fundraising from monied elites coast to coast — what folks need is someone who actually listens and who actually shows up right here in the First District,” Myers concluded.
