Others have prescreened participants in the hopes of purging activists who do not live in the districts. That decision has drawn fire.
“Even when you had the conservative outrage over Obamacare, I don’t recall anyone trying to preselect attendance. The unwillingness to take criticism or any heat from a legislative decision is really unusual,” Norm Ornstein, a congressional ethics expert, told The Washington Post in May.

With his wife and daughter in the audience, people in the prescreened crowd shouted at Blum throughout the evening, complaining that he started late, that he didn’t immediately start answering questions about health care and that he said that his district offices are open and eager to deal with constituent concerns.
“You’re never there!” one woman shouted.
