Just under half of House and Senate Republicans are holding town hall meetings this summer, but Democratic jobs activists say it’s not enough. “They’re holding a lot fewer” than in 2009, says Michael Uehlein, spokesman for the American Dream Movement.

Progressives are showing up at the offices of lawmakers to demand that Congress focus more on jobs and less on federal spending. Uehlein said that his group has already held 75 jobs protests at GOP offices.
