Democratic committees are set to host town halls across the country to target vulnerable House Republicans ahead of the 2026 midterms. The effort, which has been dubbed Peoples Town Halls, was launched Friday by the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), and the Association of State Democratic Committees (ASDC).
The town halls will target Republican Reps. Juan Ciscomani in Arizonas 6th Congressional District, Gabe Evans in Colorados 8th Congressional District, Anna Paulina Luna in Floridas 13th Congressional District, Zach Nunn in Iowas 3rd Congressional District, John James in Michigans Nebraskas 10th Congressional District, Ann Wagner in Missouris 2nd Congressional District, Ryan Mackenzie in Pennsylvanias 7th Congressional District, and Rob Bresnahan in Pennsylvanias 8th Congressional District.
DNC Chair Ken Martin accused House Republicans of selling out voters by backing the Trump-Musk agenda.
Now theyre terrified to be in the same room as the people who sent them to Washington, Martin said. When 217 House Republicans voted for Donald Trumps billionaire tax handout, each one agreed to destroy Medicaid, keep food from kids and families in need, and target the programs that take care of our veterans all in service of massive tax breaks for their billionaire donors and wealthy corporations.
The effort comes after National Republican Congressional Committee Chair Richard Hudson (R-N.C.) advised House Republicans to avoid in-person town halls in their districts.

Tim Walz is also holding town halls where GOP reps are afraid to go.
