Durant received a visit from Oklahoma Congressman Jim Bridenstine Friday evening as he stopped at the Plaza in downtown Durant to speak to citizens.
Bridenstine said that while he does not represent this district, he would like to hear the concerns of the people in this district as well as allow the opportunity for supporters to donate to his campaign.
Bridenstine responded to citizen concerns on topics such as the nation’s defense, foreign policies, immigration reform, same sex marriage and conflicts at the nation’s capital.
He told listeners that he would support a convention of states to balance the budget if the situation arises.
He then went on to talk about the spending in the capital and cutting of defense. He said this affects America as well as other countries that America could help but is not.
