LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County's state senator will hold a virtual town hall focusing on the state's budget this week.

Sen. Noreen Evans is hosting the event from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, May 4.

“As we all know, these are hard times and California is facing some very difficult decisions about how to balance our budget,” Evans said in a statement released by her office. “I rely on your input to make decisions in the Capitol that are best for Senate District 2 and the state of California as a whole.”

Community members will be able both to watch the forum online and post questions at http://senweb03.senate.ca.gov/focus/townhall/sd02/.

Evans said she's looking forward to hearing from community members “and maximizing this opportunity to work together.”
