I want to tell you a story that represents the heart of my Administration. I’ll admit: It’s a bit on the longer side, and I hope you’ll read the whole thing. But if you’re in a hurry, I could really use your support in these final days before mail-in ballots go out. Can you chip in just a few bucks to help us reach thousands of undecided voters while we still have the chance? [[link removed]]

John, I remember what the experts told me after a section of I-95 collapsed in Philly just months after I took office.

They told me it would take months to reopen the roadway. Months of gridlock. Months of traffic jams. Months of headaches for working Pennsylvanians.

The next day, I issued a proclamation of disaster emergency to cut through the red tape and provide Commonwealth agencies with the resources they needed to do their jobs. Hours later, crews started working around the clock.

Four days after the collapse? We set up a 24/7 livestream of the construction site, so Pennsylvanians could see exactly what their government was up to. No vague, ambiguous statements. No promises without evidence to back it up.

The following day? Pennsylvania union workers began to lay the foundation for the interim roadway.

Not long after, we made it official: We reopened six lanes of traffic on I-95 just twelve days after an unprecedented collapse.

We didn’t accept the status quo. We buckled down and got to work. And John, I’ve brought that same mindset to everything I do as your Governor.

When I took office, political pundits all across the country believed we wouldn’t get anything done. I was one of the only Governors in the nation working with a divided legislature — a Republican-controlled State Senate, and a Democratic-controlled State House. In many other states, it was a recipe for gridlock and disaster. But here in Pennsylvania? We got sh*t done.

Record funding for our public schools. Free breakfasts for every Pennsylvania K-12 student. Ten tax cuts for families, seniors, and small businesses across our Commonwealth.

I still hear it from the pundits all the time, John: Delivering real, lasting progress in a swing state is impossible — a thing of the past. But we’re proving them wrong every damn day.

If that’s the kind of leadership that speaks to you, I’m counting on your support right now. Because make no mistake: Not every politician agrees with what we’re doing. And if we want to keep it up, we need lots and lots of folks to chip in and support our voter outreach programs before ballots hit mailboxes. That’s the honest truth. [[link removed]]

I know that was a long story, John. So if you’ve made it this far, thank you.
