Brief: Leonard Lance to Hold Press Conference in Westfield

The event will take place at Robert Treat Deli at 10 a.m. Thursday.

Two weeks after President Barack Obama held a round-table discussion with four small business owners at a sandwich shop in Edison, Rep. Leonard Lance (R-Hunterdon County) will hold a press conference with the owners of a deli in Westfield. 

At 10 a.m. Thursday, Lance will appear at Robert Treat Deli on Quimby Street, according to a media advisory distributed by Lance's congressional office. There, he will discuss economic issues, particularly with regard to small business legislation. 

The press conference comes after Lance's Democratic challenger, Ed . It is also the third of three Union County events that Lance is holding this week. On Wednesday, he will host town hall-style meetings at noon at Summit City Hall and at 6:30 p.m. at the Casano Center on Chestnut Street in Roselle Park.
