Thank you
#PA07
, I am honored to have earned another term representing us in Washington. This seat belongs to the people of our community & so does this victory. Together we will build a future worthy of the promise of our commonwealth, and our country. Thank you all, so much.
We just voted for a system to alert communities when there is an active shooter situation - similar to an amber alert - and 80% of Republicans voted against it. The bill was endorsed by law enforcement.
Please stop using “Dr.” before Oz’s name. Use his name like we do for all other candidates. Or just his last name as we often do. He’s not practicing medicine. He’s running for office.
The fact that Jim Jordan had to threaten every Republican member with a primary if they didn’t vote for him to be Speaker tells you everything you need to know about Jim Jordan.
I’m SHOCKED by the number of tweets honoring MLK today from Members of Congress who voted against the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act of 2021. 🤔
I’m kidding. I’m not shocked.
Welcome to
#PA07
, Mr. President. But people are dying here in Allentown. As you plan your photo opp, they’re saying goodbye to their parents in nursing homes over Zoom. Our firefighters are preparing to be furloughed. Folks are hungry, tired, & broke. How are you helping?
12 million Americans lose unemployment insurance today, and soon, eviction moratoriums will be lifted.
@realDonaldTrump
could stop those two things from happening with a simple signature. But he’s golfing in FL, while
@VP
skis in Vail.
This is the fist bump everyone needs to be talking about.
Ted Cruz and fellow Republicans celebrating after blocking a bill to help toxin-exposed veterans survive.
I received a gracious congratulatory call from Lisa
@schellerforpa
this afternoon. Although we certainly have our differences, we do agree on this: our supporters want the same thing—to live in a free, safe, and prosperous Pennsylvania.
Just a reminder that only one candidate for Congress in PA-07 was endorsed by
@realDonaldTrump
and it sure as hell wasn’t me. Proud to have been endorsed instead by
@BarackObama
and
@JoeBiden
.
This is deeply personal to me. My dad, a combat pilot in two wars, spent more than 2 decades trying to prove that his extreme hearing loss was related to his military service. Why should vets have to fight the very government they served?
Fantastic afternoon in NorCo today with
@JohnFetterman
— WHAT a crowd!
We’re fighting to Make it in America, protect the freedom to choose, and create an economy that works for everyone, not just those at the top.
44 days. Let’s do this.
Nothing says "unity" like the head of Biden’s covid team telling everyone that is unvaccinated that they're “looking at a winter of severe illness and death.”
My opponent thinks she should be making your health care decisions for you. She’d be a vote for extreme bills to ban abortion and throw doctors in jail.
This race could determine who controls Congress and whether Republicans have the votes to ban abortion– we’ve got to win it.
@davidhogg111
Don’t stereotype. It’s not becoming. I won my race because of Gen Z, young millennials, AND seniors! Remember: your grandparents care about your generation!
I know how to cooperate, get along, and get things done, even in the toughest of circumstances – like, for example, Congress. And if you don’t believe me, fine. Take it from my ex-husband. ⬇️
Pictures of the Lehigh Valley will look great in your next ad, but people aren’t getting sick along party lines. It’s not about politics, it’s about policy — and you’ve failed them.
So when you pose with our frontline workers, wear a mask. It’s literally the least you can do.
The reason we will be voting on COVID relief after midnight and is not b/c Dems want to do it under the cover of darkness. It’s because the GOP delayed it w/ ridiculous amdmts so that they could CLAIM that Dems were voting on this important package in the middle of the night.
The government doesn’t belong in your doctor’s office. That’s why I’m fighting to make sure that every person has the right to control their own body.
My opponent? She wants to ban abortion and thinks she should make your health care decisions for you.
Unlike you, I’ve worked to get people covered during this crisis. I’ve introduced bills to open an emergency enrollment period — you’ve said no. How can you pose for pictures with the people you’re trying to take health care from? Your ACA lawsuit is ongoing DURING a pandemic!
Lisa Scheller is open to supporting an abortion ban with NO exceptions for rape or incest.
Our new ad is sounding the alarm on her dangerous, extreme, anti-choice agenda – because it’s not the role of Lisa Scheller, or the government, to tell a woman what to do with her body.
Let me say this, loud and clear: I am a proud, pro-choice candidate. No one should interfere with a woman's right to choose and her right to decide when, where, and with whom to start a family. Period.
What’s your plan to pay the firefighters and teachers who will be furloughed without local funding? McConnell called this funding a “Blue State Bailout” — but these furloughs don’t just hurt Democrats, Mr. President.
Our nursing homes are drowning. Both the frontline staff and the patients. From the very beginning they needed rapid testing and PPE — you didn’t get it to them. Where are the tests? Where is the PPE?
I'm running for Congress to advocate for the hardworking values we all share. Honored to receive
@BarackObama
's endorsement, and now I need yours: get out and vote this November!
Today I’m proud to endorse such a wide and impressive array of Democratic candidates – leaders as diverse, patriotic, and big-hearted as the America they’re running to represent:
.
@AndyKimNJ
will be the next US senator from NJ. He shone a light on politics-as-usual in NJ, and the citizens of NJ will be better off for it. Thank you to
@TammyMurphyNJ
for gracefully withdrawing rather than perpetuating nasty politics.
Why does the GOP want to stop Gen Z from voting? Perhaps because GOP policies aren’t good for the
@VotersTomorrow
and they want to make sure that our young voters can’t make their voices heard. I won’t let that happen.
While my opponent has been busy closing her American factories and opening new ones overseas, I’ve been busy working to get things done. I’ve passed bills to invest in American manufacturing, alleviate the supply chain crisis, and support our American workers.
FEC reports today confirmed that I have almost 7 times the cash on hand as the entire Republican field. Looking forward to continuing to represent PA-07 for another term 😎
Every American deserves access to life-saving prescription drugs. That’s why I helped pass the Affordable Insulin Now Act to cap out-of-pocket insulin costs at $35 per month.
I will always put families before Big Pharma.
❌ Lisa Scheller said she’d NEVER vote to codify Roe v. Wade.
❌ She said she wants to defund Planned Parenthood.
❌ She said she’s open to supporting an abortion ban with NO exceptions for rape or incest.
We should take her at her word. She is deeply, dangerously anti-choice.
I’m proud to have helped pass the CHIPS + Science Act last month. By making more semiconductors in the US, we can increase domestic manufacturing, strengthen supply chains, and lower costs for families—all while supporting American workers.
What an incredible honor to have
@FLOTUS
(and my good friend
@MadeleineDean
) here with us in Allentown tonight!
Six more days— let’s leave it all out on the field!
The Active Shooter Alert Act would adapt the Integrated Public Warning System to send active shooter alerts w/i communities & would use expertise of LE and emergency mgmt about best practices for these alerts. 80% of Rs voted No.
I am honored and humbled by the faith our community has placed in me to continue advocating for the people of
#PA07
in Congress. Whether you voted for me, or you didn't: I will keep working as hard as I possibly can for you and your family.
That work begins now.
Polluted air. Infected water systems. Dangerous natural disasters. These are all coming down the pike. We must act fast on climate change. It’s time Congress get in the game — I’m ready to go day-one.
The CHIPS and Science Act is a big win for Pennsylvania manufacturing. It’ll make us more competitive, remedy supply chain issues, and create good-paying jobs here at home. When we invest in American manufacturing, everyone wins.
We’ve got to make more here in America. That’s why I’m so proud to have helped pass the CHIPS and Science Act, which invests in semiconductor manufacturing to keep the U.S. competitive and support our workers while doing it.
I’ll always be on the side of American workers.
Pregnancy is far, far too complicated to legislate. The government should have no say in your personal health care decisions—and I will always stand up for your freedom to control your own body.
Polls just closed in Pennsylvania. I want to thank everyone — no matter who you voted for — who came out and cast a ballot today. This is our year, and it’s time for us to rally together and get to work. We got this.
Today I voted to pass the Respect for Marriage Act – because every American deserves the freedom to love who they love, free from discrimination. When our rights are under attack, I fight back.
We owe it to our kids to preserve our environment – including our beautiful mountains and rivers here in
#PA07
– to guarantee them a bright future.
The Inflation Reduction Act will cut pollution and lower energy costs. I voted YES on the IRA and YES to protecting our climate.
@NiallHarbison
@ZoeyCongressdog
and her late big brother, Norman, who had his share of health problems, altho most definitely wasn’t a street dog. I want every dog to lead the life my dogs have had.
Since we’re in a pandemic & my opponent is dead set on repealing the ACA (which protects 300K people in
#PA07
with pre-existing conditions), I wanted to know what her alternative plan for health care is.
Her answer?
*crickets*
(Spoiler: She just doesn’t have one)
My opponent said she’s open to supporting the Heartbeat Protection Act, another extreme bill banning abortion WITHOUT exceptions for rape or incest. Why should we think she wouldn’t support Republicans’ latest attempt to strip reproductive freedom from millions?
The best team I’ve ever had the honor of being in the trenches with. The heart and soul and grit of these people is nothing short of awe-inspiring.
They don’t create ripples, they create waves.
The next post in my
#PA
postmortem series is up! Today, we focus on PA-7 and
@wildforcongress
's re-election campaign there. I'll put up another poll soon and you guys will have the chance to pick the next district for me to do coverage on. Enjoy!
This race could determine whether Republicans have the votes in Congress to pass a nationwide abortion ban – and my opponent would be a vote to make that ban happen. To protect the right to choose, we must win this race.
I’m honored that voters in Pennsylvania’s 15th District have chosen for me to be their Congresswoman and finish out the term of former Congressman Charlie Dent. The work starts right now!
While my opponent is busy closing American factories and shipping her workforce overseas, I’ve been busy working to help us Make it in America. I passed the CHIPS + Science Act to invest in domestic manufacturing— you can always count on me to put our American workers first.
Today, I'm proud to receive an endorsement from
@BarackObama
. This election is too important to sit out –and I'll need your support to win in November. Let’s get to work!
I didn’t make up to $1 million in income from my company’s factories in China – because I don’t own any factories in China.
I don’t have millions invested in Big Tech, Big Pharma, or Big Oil.
You don’t have to wonder whose interests I represent.
The House just passed the Inflation Reduction Act, a historic investment in our future.
It lowers prescription drug prices and health care costs, makes monumental investments in protecting our climate, and holds corporate cheaters accountable.
🧵 Here's a bit of what it does:
BREAKING: House passes the Inflation Reduction Act, a sweeping Democratic bill to combat climate change and extend health care coverage. The bill now heads to President Biden's desk.
It was my honor to welcome our next Vice President
@KamalaHarris
to Bethlehem today.
#PA07
is FIRED UP & ready to finish this fight strong.
We heard it today loud & clear– Pennsylvania is Biden Country. I can't wait for the rest of the country to hear it too.
#BidenHarris2020
Last night in DC, on my book tour, I was asked by an audience member to do a spontaneous "60-second rant" - in praise of something.
Off the cuff, I chose young people. Young people who are saving our democracy.
Start the clock...and watch what happened:
Happy Ukraine Independence Day 💙💛
I will always be an ally to the Greater Lehigh Valley's vibrant Ukrainian-American community — and as we celebrate 31 years of Ukrainian independence, we must continue to
#StandWithUkraine
in the fight for democracy and freedom.
With under 11 weeks until Election Day,
#TeamWild
is hitting the doors! Our team’s fabulous volunteers criss-crossed all over
#PA07
this weekend to talk to our neighbors about just how important this election is and what's at stake for folks in our community.
People in my district care about kitchen table issues – and they also care about access to reproductive health care.
I’m working to strengthen the economy, lower costs, and protect the right to choose. I can walk and chew gum at the same time.
My opponent claims she "didn't say that" she'd be open to supporting the Heartbeat Protection Act, a bill to ban abortion without exceptions for rape or incest.
She did. She said it on video.
I joined with PA women today to sound the alarm about Lisa Scheller’s anti-choice agenda—because it’s not the role of Lisa Scheller or anyone in the government to tell you what to do with your body. Believe me when I say it: I’m fighting like hell to protect your right to choose.
Big Pharma said I wouldn’t “get a free pass” for voting to allow Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices. But their threats don’t scare me. Never have, never will.
I took on Big Pharma and I won— and now, we’re putting a stop to price gouging and getting drug costs down.
What a fantastic afternoon spent with
@JoshShapiroPA
, Carbon County Commissioner Rocky Ahner, and some of Jim Thorpe’s small business owners!
Since day one, I’ve worked to support small businesses to strengthen our communities and invest in a brighter economic future.
When we say all hands on deck to canvass Saturday, we mean everyone--like Senator Bob Casey & Abbi Jacobson, creator/star of Broad City! Join Senator Casey in Bethlehem () & Easton (), & Abbi in Allentown ().
Hello, everybody! I just voted! You can too, until 8pm today.
It’s been the honor of a lifetime to represent our community. I’ll never stop fighting to deliver for Pennsylvania and make a difference in your lives. Now, I’m humbly asking for your vote to keep the work going.
Partisan gerrymandering has no place in our democracy. I am proud of the steps
@GovernorTomWolf
is taking to ensure fairness in the redistricting process in Pennsylvania.
