Congressional town hall meetings are usually sleepy affairs - some lemonade and some cookies, at a senior center somewhere. A dozen of the same folks who to every town hall over the last decade.

In an effort to hear from more voices, Congressman Kurt Schrader is experimenting today at 2 p.m. with a "Twitter Town Hall". From your computer, or your phone, anybody can ask Kurt a question about what's he's up to - and share their opinions.

Schrader can be found on Twitter at @RepSchrader. They've asked folks to use the hashtag #AskRepSchrader to ask questions.
