O’Rourke Would Require Town Halls by Cabinet Members

Beto O’Rourke said he would require his Cabinet to hold monthly town hall meetings if he is elected president in 2020, CNN reports.

The former Texas congressman said he would sign an executive order on his first day in office requiring the town halls “to listen to you and to be accountable to you so that we deliver for you.”

Said O’Rourke: “Not a handpicked audience. Not a theatrical production. But a real, live, town hall meeting — not just to answer questions, but to be held accountable.”
