The first Breakfast with the Legislators of 2014 is scheduled for Monday, Jan. 27, at the Oak Ridge Civic Center.
“While a good breakfast is considered to be the best way to start the day, attending Breakfast with the Legislators may be the best way to get to know key legislative decision makers and to ask questions on issues moving forward in state government,” a press release said.
The hour-long breakfast starts at 7:30 a.m. Monday, Jan. 27, in the Social Room of the Oak Ridge Civic Center, located at 1401 Oak Ridge Turnpike. A free continental breakfast will be served.
Senators Ken Yager and Randy McNally and representatives John Ragan and Kent Calfee have been invited to speak about the legislative outlook for this session of the Tennessee General Assembly and to respond to questions from the audience, the press release said.
It will be the 27th year that the League of Women Voters of Oak Ridge has had Breakfast with the Legislators.
Convened on the fourth Monday of every month while the legislature is in session, the popular community event not only offers firsthand information on upcoming legislation and House and Senate committee activities but prompts dialogue among legislators and citizens and provides a great networking opportunity for members of the community, the release said.
If the Oak Ridge schools are closed due to bad weather, Breakfast with the Legislators will be canceled. For additional information, contact Voter Service Chairperson Doris Sklad at (865) 483-5239.
