Facing Massive Protests, Arizona’s Gosar Cancels In-person Town Hall

Citing an “overwhelming level of interest,” Rep. Paul Gosar has cancelled an in-person town hall slated for Thursday in Gold Canyon, Ariz., changing it instead to a carefully orchestrated “tele-conference” that precludes in-person attendance. Hundreds were expected to attend the event to protest Gosar’s agenda, including his relentless and unpopular efforts to privatize federal public lands.
