U.S. Senate

 

Bob Casey

Since he was elected to the United States Senate in 2006, Bob Casey has worked to create family-sustaining jobs and foster financial security for Pennsylvania families; protect our children and invest in their futures; ensure safety at home and respect for America abroad; promote honesty and accountability in government; preserve the dignity of the vulnerable of all ages among us; and advocate for his constituents and help them solve problems they face.

As a United States Senator, Bob Casey has established a long record of results on behalf of the people of Pennsylvania.

U.S. Congress - PA 1st District

 

Ashley Ehasz

Our experiences shape us. I am a veteran and a patriot. Watching the riots escalate during the January 6th insurrection, I knew that politics as usual was no longer an option. We don't need politicians like Fitzpatrick, who turn their heads from their party's violent rhetoric. We need new leadership. I know the struggles of working families in Bucks and Montgomery Counties firsthand. Lack of access to good-paying jobs, mental health services, substance abuse treatment, and affordable education has held our communities back, all while we deal with skyrocketing drug prices, existential threats to abortion access, student loan debt, a stagnant minimum wage, and the destructive consequences of climate change. Something’s got to change, and Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick has simply failed to get the job done. I'm not a politician. I'm not going to Washington to cozy up to lobbyists — I am going to roll up my sleeves and solve problems. When it comes to affording things like a mortgage, health care, and student loans, I have skin in the game.

PA State Treasurer

 

Ryan Bizzarro

My public service is dedicated to putting people first -- and fighting back against extreme agendas, politicians, and special interests that hurt them. I’ve introduced legislation to expand veteran services, senior citizen services, animal rights, voting rights, first-time home buying assistance, and health care. I am a longtime supporter of our police, fire, and medical first responders. And I take a backseat to nobody when it comes to being an advocate for working people and the labor unions who help build our country while providing workers with safer working conditions and fairer pay with benefits. Now I’m running for State Treasurer to protect Pennsylvanians.  Protect our assets. Protect our pensions. Protect the programs that make a positive impact. Pennsylvanians deserve a State Treasurer who serves them – and not some extreme agenda.
