101 Workshop
for Constituents
State Representative Jim
Hackworth (D-Clinton) will sponsor a workshop about key governmental
issues on Thursday, March 11, 2010, from 5:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. at
the Oak Ridge Civic Center (A&B rooms). The Civic Center is located at
1403 Oak Ridge Turnpike in Oak Ridge.
The topics of the workshop, called “Government 101,” will include health
and healthcare conditions in Tennessee, the recent changes in education,
and the overall status of employment in the area.
“This is a chance to bring government to the people,” Hackworth stated.
“When I talk to people of this area, they express concerns about
healthcare, education, and jobs. So, in order to address those concerns,
I am bringing in folks from Nashville to talk about those issues.”
The discussion of health and healthcare will focus on the issues
currently facing the State of Tennessee, including overall health
factors and the current status of the TennCare and Cover TN programs.
The education discussion will be directed at the changes to the
education system made by the General Assembly during the
recently-concluded Special Session on Education. The third and final
piece of the program will concern the current economic conditions of the
State and what assistance may be helpful.
