MORIAH | There were no protesters, fiery exchanges and barely a raised voice at Rep. Elise Stefanik’s forum in Moriah on Friday. Instead, the lawmaker’s second town hall in as many days unfolded at a relaxed pace to about 65 attendees at the Moriah Volunteer Fire Department, where the color scheme was more camouflage and flannel than the pink woolen hats donned by progressive activists. “I’m not angry,” said Bernard Beebe, a Ticonderoga farmer. “America is a great country. If this was Venezuela, this wouldn’t be happening.” The event was the polar opposite of a forum at

the Moreau Community Center last Thursday in which a raucous crowd pressed Stefanik in an event that often threatened to go off the rails. Where lines stretched down the block in South Glens Falls an hour ahead of showtime, not a single person showed up until 45 minutes before the lawmaker took at the stage on Friday, leaving the coffee as part of the lawmaker’s “Coffee With Your Congresswoman” series largely untouched.

HEALTH CARE CONCERNS

Health care was the subject of the two extended back-and-forth exchanges between attendees and Stefanik at the forum, which was moderated by Dan Alexander, publisher and CEO of Sun Community News. Peter, who identified himself as a Lake Placid-area school teacher, said he was concerned that Valeant Pharm had engaged in prescription drug price gouging. He asked Stefanik what she was doing to combat rising health care costs. » Forum Cont. on pg. 8
