U.S. Rep. Peter King will host a tele-conference town hall for his constituents on Wednesday evening. 

King, a Republican from Seaford, serves the 2nd District, which also includes a portion of North Wantagh. His 90-minute town hall will begin at 6:30 p.m.  

In an email to his constituents, King said that all topics — including terrorism, immigration, Russia and healthcare — will be open for discussion during the event. "I look forward to an intelligent and mutually beneficial dialogue," he added. 

To participate, residents must register at https://vekeo.com/peteking/. Participants will be called on the day and time of the event, according to the website. 

Through the Vekeo, called iTownHall, "constituents are able to participate in live events by listening in, completing poll questions, and submitting questions," the company website states. 

King is in his 13th term in the House. He is a member of the Homeland Security Committee and chairman of the sub-committee on counterterrorism and intelligence. King also serves on the Financial Services Committee and Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
