Rep. Andy Harris will hold a virtual town hall meeting Monday and Tuesday night.

Maryland's lone Republican congressman has already held several of these town halls, despite calls from some of his constituents to hold in-person meetings.

Monday's teleconference town hall will begin at 5:30 p.m. The town hall will begin at 6 p.m. on Tuesday.

Harris is a big supporter of repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act.

He said he wanted to wait until an Obamacare replacement had been proposed before holding an in-person meeting.

"It's important to me that we have the proposed plan details in hand to share with attendees of the brick-and-mortar town hall so that I can answer their specific questions at the town hall, rather than offer only speculation, which is all we have at this time," said Harris.
