DENVER – U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner is set to hold a town hall meeting around midday Monday in Pueblo, his team announced Friday.

The meeting will be held at the Pueblo Convention Center and runs from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 20.

Gardner’s team asks folks who want to attend to arrive early, saying space is limited.

The town hall comes at another time of high drama in Washington, as Gardner and Senate Republicans work to pass a sweeping tax reform bill and lawmakers and the White House continue to work out the threat posed by North Korea.

Gardner, as chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, has also had to distance the committee from its early support of Roy Moore, the Republican candidate to fill the U.S. Senate seat from Alabama vacated by Jeff Sessions.

The town hall meeting will be Gardner’s sixth in Colorado since August after he went for more than a year prior without holding one.
