Washington, D.C. – Nevada Senator Harry Reid announced this morning on Twitter that he will hold his first Twitter Town Hall to discuss how Democrats are working to create jobs and get our economy moving. The half-hour forum will take place on September 14 at 4:00 p.m. EST/1:00 p.m. PST. 

The Twitter Town Hall will give Americans an opportunity to send their questions about job-creation measures directly to Senator Reid. To send a question, Twitter users simply Tweet a message of fewer than 140 characters that includes the hashtag #AskReidTH. Twitter users can Tweet questions any time between now and the Town Hall.

During the town hall on September 14th, Senator Reid will answer a selection of Tweeted questions.  His responses will be posted on Twitter and streamed live over the Internet. 

This town hall is a continuation of Democrats' efforts to use new media to engage Americans on the critical issues facing our country, and hear their ideas for how to move our country forward.
