John, it's official. I will be going up against Ryan Mackenzie this November.
Now that we officially have our opponent, this race is going to start heating up. I know because we’ve been here before.
National Republicans will start funneling millions of dollars in dark money into my district to launch nasty attack ads lying about my record in Congress and flying in top Republicans to support my opponent.
There's so much at stake in this election, John. My opponent is too extreme for PA-07. He even wrote a letter trying to stop the certification of the 2020 election in Pennsylvania. Not to mention, he is an anti-abortion extremist who boasts a 100% anti-choice voting record.
With abortion rights, gun violence prevention, voting rights, and democracy itself on the line this year, we can't afford to let Mackenzie anywhere near Congress.
This TOSS-UP race is set to be one of the most competitive House races in the country, and with the GOP House majority hanging by a thread, we *must* protect PA-07 this November.
