She's clearly a coward who wants to avoid actually dealing with the public

What gives you ask. She has decided not to travel. Whats your point?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

As her constituent, there is much political precedence for an elected official to physically visit the locales where their constitutes are located.  I can think of no exceptions since the founding of the Republic.

The site is talking about 1 month, not the entire time in office.

Well, having lived in Iowa my entire life (which includes being born here), Senator Charles Grassley used to visit all 99 counties once a year!  Not sure if Chuck is doing that this year or not; he can always use "old age" as his excuse!

Of all our congressional types, King is by far the worst.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Along the same lines, my GOP representative (Jaime Herrera-Buetler) has been ducking constituents for over a month. Said constituents have been calling for her to hold an in-person town hall, which she has refused to do. She finally held a phone town hall on a few hours notice and fielded a couple of softball questions.

It's apparent she isn't interested in hearing from her constituents.
