A contentious town hall meeting was held by U.S. Rep. Mike Flood in Columbus, Nebraska, where his constituents expressed their concerns over his support for President Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s cuts to federal programs. Despite advice to hold a virtual event, Flood opted for an in-person meeting where he engaged with the crowd of 400 people.
Flood emphasized the importance of addressing the national debt for national security, but faced a barrage of questions and comments from attendees. Concerns raised included the impact of tariffs on Nebraska farmers, the consequences of ending remote work for federal employees, and the potential effects of Trump’s executive orders.
Many questions went unanswered due to time constraints, but Flood pledged to take the feedback back to Capitol Hill. Attendees praised Flood for hosting the event in person, despite the rowdiness, and expressed hope that their concerns would be addressed in Washington.
