| This is a weekly update from the Republican Party of Pennsylvania Chairman Lawrence Tabas filling you in on what our statewide party leaders are up to, along with relevant news pertaining to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. | | Fellow Pennsylvanians, This week, I want to draw your attention to the actions that rogue Philadelphia commissioners recently took to try and unilaterally change our state’s election law. During the May 18th elections, these officials decided to count all mail ballots without a date, even though the Pennsylvania Supreme Court has ruled that voters must sign and date envelopes when returning their mail-in ballots. After pressure from Republicans in the legislature, the rogue officials backed down and reversed their decision. While they were ultimately unsuccessful, the actions of these commissioners illustrate the importance of election security and the need to reform our state’s election laws. The PA GOP remains committed to securing our elections and ensuring that they are free from fraud or any other irregularities. Sincerely, 
Lawrence J. Tabas

June 1, 2021 | Politics PA For the third month in a row, Pennsylvania’s open Senate seat has been ranked as the most likely seat to flip. But while radical Democrats like John Fetterman currently enjoy a significant fundraising advantage, Republican strategists like their chances after the people of Pennsylvania resoundingly rejected Tom Wolf’s executive overreach at the ballot box. They hope that the momentum from the May 18th elections will carry over into both the gubernatorial and Senate race next year. | | A Piece of PA Positivity: | | Pennsylvania senior completes 13 years of perfect attendance
