About
Congressman Peter Roskam, representing the 6th district of Illinois, held this live, interactive event, to discuss pressing issues facing the country and to dialogue with constituents. Congressman Roskam addressed issues such as President Trump's travel ban, the Affordable Care act, and the school voucher system. He shared that it would be a mistake not to look at the attacks in France as a response to the refugee ban, and informed participants that the seven countries on this ban are either failed states or have hostile intentions towards America. Regarding the Affordable Care Act, the Congressman discussed the need to move into a different system, and not a single payer system. He shared his opinion that a single payer system would come with increased issues with government involvement. Participants were able to ask questions live of the Congressman, and addressed topics such as tax reform and school funding.
