Join the League of Women Voters of Orange, Durham, and Chatham Counties to
recognize retired Representative David Price for his more than 30 years as
a member of the US House of Representatives and to welcome Representative
Valerie Foushee to her new role representing NC’s 4th Congressional
district. The event is free and open to the public and will be held at 2
p.m. on Sunday, March 12 at the Chapel Hill Public Library
<https://www.google.com/maps/place/Chapel+Hill+Public+Library/@35.9321256,-79.0379863,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x89acc2b35ba77531:0xd7fb009cb6fc9924!8m2!3d35.9321213!4d-79.0357922!16s%2Fm%2F0j96qww>
.

Former Representative Price will share reflections on his 17 terms in
office and Representative Foushee, who began her first term in January,
will share her initial impressions of Congress and the challenges ahead*.*


David Price represented the Research Triangle area for 34 years before
retiring in January. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from UNC-Chapel
Hill and a Bachelor of Divinity degree and a Ph.D. in political science
from Yale University. As a legislator, he was a sponsor of many bills, but
counts his involvement with the passage of the Affordable Care Act as a
highlight.


Valerie Foushee began her public service on the Chapel Hill-Carrboro School
Board and went on to serve as the first Black woman on the Orange County
Board of Commissioners. She has also served as a NC state representative
and NC state senator before being elected to the US Congress in November
2022.

This celebration is free and open to the public, free parking is available.
