Town Halls for All Act of 2026

This legislation requires every Member of Congress to convene and attend a minimum of 12 in-person town halls annually within their respective congressional district or state. These gatherings must be open to the general public, free of charge, and adhere to specific operational guidelines, including being ADA compliant and running for at least one hour.

Key requirements for these town halls involve providing public notice of the date, time, and city at least four calendar days in advance. The precise location can be shared with registered attendees if not publicly disclosed, and notice must be disseminated through common communication channels like email or social media. This act aims to foster greater direct engagement and accountability between elected officials and their constituents.
