"Miller-Meeks will hold a town hall when 'hell freezes over'"

from my email from progression:

3. MILLER-MEEKS SAYS SHE’LL HOLD A TOWN HALL “WHEN HELL FREEZES OVER”: Iowa Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks is making headlines for saying she’ll hold a public town hall “when hell freezes over.” The swing-district Republican told party members she’s tired of being “yelled at” by constituents demanding answers. For someone touting her votes on social media, she ironically seems to fear being held accountable for them.

And there is a YouTube video:

We used to see her predecessor around town and he would always stop and chat. No need to yell at him.

IIRC, she won the closest House election last year. In a district that close, it’s a bad idea to piss off your constituents. She seems like a dim bulb.
