DC Council Chairman Phil Mendelson hosted a town hall at a church in Southwest D.C. Wednesday night .

Residents expressed concerns about the lack of a Ward 8 councilmember representing them during budget season.

The U.S. House of Representatives introduced a spending bill that would require the city to cut more than $1 billion from its budget.

He indicated he's not going to stop writing checks on Saturday , so it's not like - all of a sudden - on Monday , teachers are furloughed and police officers are furloughed," Mendelson said. "But this is very serious. We're trying to see if we can figure out a solution, should we not be able to get the [cuts removed].".
