April 25 Town Hall
We showed up! We spoke up!
April 24th Town Hall. Rep Steil was a no show!
Our DOGE Letter to Rep Steil!
Reform or Resign!
My phone call to Rep. Steil.
More than 150 of Representative Bryan Steil’s constituents showed up to their 1st Congressional District Town Hall, and Congressman Steil did not.
"Obviously a man who doesn't have the courage to come to this meeting and listen to his constituents, doesn't have the kind of courage it takes to stand up to Donald Trump and the people behind him," Jean from Oak Creek.
The messages were clear:
Stand up against the Trump regime’s agenda. Grow a spine. Grow a backbone.Stand up for Due Process one of us can be disappeared, all of us can.Stop the cuts by DOGE.
Since Steil decided not to be present at his own district’s Town Hall, citizens spoke directly to the camera for him to listen, watch, and stand up for the people he represents. The event was held at the Franklin Public Library on April 24, 2025.
