As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, Bob is asking us all to take steps that will keep our friends, family, and neighbors safe. To reduce the spread of COVID-19, don't touch your eyes nose or mouth or come in close contact with individuals who are sick. Do stay home if you're sick, wash your hands, cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze, give blood, and donate to food pantries.

Every day, Senator Bob Casey is fighting for us. But he needs our help.
Will you chip in to help Bob keep fighting for Pennsylvania?
