House Republicans are being encouraged to avoid in-person town halls in favor of phone and live-streamed versions, advice that comes after constituents and activists rocked recent GOP events by expressing outrage about the Trump administration’s dramatic moves to reshape the federal government.
National Republican Congressional Committee Chair Richard Hudson (R-N. C.) told House Republicans at a closed-door conference meeting Tuesday morning that members should opt for tele-town halls or live streamed events that can reach more people, rather than in-person town halls that can be hijacked by Democratic activists.
"We’ve been encouraging our members to communicate directly with their constituents, and they’re anxious to do that. There’s lots of different ways and forums to do it,” Speaker Johnson said. “You can do it in telephone town halls. You can have small subgroups of people from different industries and segments of the community. We find that to be very, very productive, and more productive than if you just go to an open forum right now. Why? Because we’ve seen this movie before. George Soros-funded groups and others literally pay protesters.”

They should not be silenced by democrats. If they cave the democrats win. The majority of the country likes what Trump has done. Maybe appeal to the voters to raise their voices to drown out the protesters.
They're not be silenced by anyone, they're being asked what they're doing to protect their constituents.
@goaded This is what you wrote "constituents and activists rocked recent GOP events by expressing outrage about the Trump administration’s dramatic moves to reshape the federal government."
It sounds like they are shouting Republicans down in an attempt to silence them. The majority of Americans are in favor of President Trump's policies and approve of the performance of his first month in office. He has done more to help Americans in 30 days than Biden did in 4 years.
He secured the borders, deported thousands of illegal aliens, uncovered 100 billion dollars in waste and corruption and many other things that he campaigned on.
No, I didn't, that was @DrPepper12, and he was quoting the article he linked to: fox56news.com/.../
The politicians are the ones with the microphones.
