What: Reducing the Federal Deficit: An Interactive Exercise

When: Wednesday, August 7th, 9:30 AM – 11:00 AM

Why: Residents of the Eighth Congressional District will have an opportunity to reduce the federal deficit in a community-wide interactive event. Participants will assume the roles of members of Congress who have been appointed to a special committee to recommend policies to reduce projected deficits over the coming years and put America on a sound fiscal foundation.
