Stefanik hosts coffee talk Monday in Fulton County

Stefanik, R-Willsboro, took a break from publicized constituent meetings during the tumult surrounding Republicans' attempt to overhaul the Affordable Health Care Act. Many town hall-style meetings across the country were filled with shouts from progressive protesters questioning their representatives not just about health care, but about their stances on President Trump's immigration and environmental policies. Stefanik hosted about 80 people last week at the Lyons Falls Library, where much of the conversation focused on challenges facing farmers such as dropping milk prices and tightening labor standards, according to coverage of the meeting in the Watertown Daily Times. Around the same time as a February protest outside Stefanik's Glens Falls office, the congresswoman said on her Facebook page that it was "unfortunate and counterproductive that a small number of activists believe the best way to address the very serious issues facing our country is to hijack and ambush community events for the sole purpose of political theater."
