[Viking12]

Time to get your protest on!

MUSKEGO, Wis. (AP) - U.S. Representative Paul Ryan is planning to hold six town-hall meetings in southeastern Wisconsin in the next two weeks.

He will start with events in Waukesha and Milwaukee counties.

The Republican congressman is scheduled to hold listening sessions in Muskego and Oak Creek on Thursday. A third event is scheduled for Friday in Racine.

Ryan is the architect of a Republican budget plan to cut taxes. His plan would also restructure Medicare and cut social safety-net programs such as food stamps and Medicaid.

After the plan was introduced, Ryan held a series of town-hall meetings in the spring that drew large and sometimes raucous crowds.

A coalition of groups who want Social Security and Medicare preserved is planning protests Thursday.

Ryan is scheduled to visit Janesville, Elkhorn and Kenosha next week.
