David McCormick has not publicly weighed in on In-person town halls with constituents

David McCormick has accepted documented donations from sectors with material interests in "In-person town halls with constituents" but has no public statement, vote, or hearing record on the topic. Expected position: As a freshman U.S. Senator representing Pennsylvania's 13 million residents, McCormick would be expected to hold publicly accessible, in-person town hall meetings where constituents can ask unscripted questions about his votes and policy positions. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: McCormick has not held a single in-person town hall since taking office. He instead conducts telephone town halls where, according to a constituent letter published in the Times-Tribune, 'questions must be submitted in advance' and his staff 'cherry picks a few soft ball questions from his MAGA base.' Constituents in multiple letters to the editor have called him a 'coward' for refusing to face voters in person. McCormick's staff defended him, saying he 'hosts regular telephone townhalls, where he can speak with thousands of constituents at once.' He found time to attend the Punxsutawney Phil event but not an in-person town hall.
