Simple. Check names and addresses and telephone numbers of people planning on attending and then limit attendance to people within your district. This will stop this harassment dead in it’s track.

TALKING POINTS--- An Obama-tied activist group training tens of thousands of agitators to protest President Trump’s policies plans to hit Republican lawmakers supporting those policies even harder this week, when they return home for the congressional recess and hold town hall meetings and other functions.
Organizing for Action, founded by Obama and featured prominently on his new post-presidency website, is distributing a training manual to anti-Trump activists that advises them to bully GOP lawmakers into backing off support for repealing ObamaCare, curbing immigration from high-risk Islamic nations, and building a border wall.
OFA calls on activists to mobilize against Republicans from now until Feb. 26, when “representatives are going to be in their home districts.” The protesters disrupted town halls earlier this month, including one held in Utah by House Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz, who was confronted by hundreds of angry demonstrators claiming to be his constituents.
The manual, published with OFA partner “Indivisible,” advises protesters to go into halls quietly so as not to raise alarms, and “grab seats at the front of the room but do not all sit together.” Rather, spread out in pairs to make it seem like the whole room opposes the Republican host’s positions. “This will help reinforce the impression of broad consensus.”
It also urges them to ask “hostile” questions — while keeping “a firm hold on the mic” — and loudly boo the the GOP politician if he isn’t “giving you real answers.” “Express your concern [to the event’s hosts] they are giving a platform to pro-Trump authoritarianism, racism, and corruption,” it says.
The goal is to make Republicans, even from safe districts, second-guess their support for the Trump agenda, and to prime “the ground for the 2018 midterms when Democrats retake power.” “Even the safest [Republican] will be deeply alarmed by signs of organized opposition,” the Obama document states, “because these actions create the impression that they’re not connected to their district and not listening to their constituents.”
“Unfavorable exchanges caught on video can be devastating” for Republican lawmakers, it says, when “shared through social media and picked up by local and national media.” After protesters gave MSNBC, CNN and the networks footage of their dust-up with Chaffetz, for example, the outlets ran them continuously, forcing Chaffetz to issue statements defending himself.

Great idea.Do it Republicans.
Do it as a Skype meeting, allow people to sign in with their name and address. mute the phones and allow questions from people in the district. This way non of the rent a mob types will be seen or heard and the meeting can actually be a productive sharing of ideas.
Or require driver license at the door to confirm constituency.
Indeed, this is violation of freedom of assembly. You got something to say, say it without shutting down others
Absolutely!! If they are NOT their constituents they shouldn’t be allowed in.
Do you think Ernst is smart enough to know that those people were shipped in protestors? I doubt it.
How about Republicans coordinate their townhall meetings so that they are all held on the same day and time.
I don’t understand why they’re not already doing this. And hire an off-duty officer experienced in spotting fake IDs, too.
when the congress person sets up a town hall announce that admittance will be granted to local voters. Must have voter registration card to enter.
Exactly. Set up an entry control point at least 50’ from the building and check IDs there. No ID, no entry... period.
My thoughts exactly!

Thanks, fhios!
Liz, another suggestion on how to stop the leftist bullying.
Check ID’s and non constituents don’t get in.
