Courtney Spoke Truth at Meeting

From a letter to the editor in the September 8, 2009 edition of the New London Day:

I attended Congressman Joe Courtney's town hall meeting Wednesday night in Montville.

Rep. Courtney did an excellent job answering people's questions and getting information out about Congress's proposal for health care reform.

It could not have been easy for Rep. Courtney to stay calm and professional and even show a sense of humor with people in opposition yelling and cutting him off from speaking. He answered questions knowledgeably and got the truth out about what is being proposed for health care reform.

Some people listened and some chose not to. It is so evident that we need health care reform now.

I am proud to have Congressman Joe Courtney representing me in Washington, D.C.
