Hi John,

My name is Dr. Steve Shapiro, and I’m Josh’s dad. I was with Josh on the night he announced his campaign to become Pennsylvania’s next Governor, and it was a surreal moment.

I’ve seen the impact Josh has had since he entered public service and became Attorney General. He recognized that the opioid crisis in the Commonwealth did not require more arrests. Instead he took the lead in the courts against Pharma responsible for excessive opioid distribution throughout Pennsylvania. The result of the settlement will provide funds for necessary opioid treatment for those in distress in every county in the Commonwealth.

All of that was accomplished while he continued to protect health care for millions of Pennsylvanians, defend our democracy when it was under attack, and pursued justice for victims of sexual abuse.

I am so proud to see that through every challenge he’s encountered, he’s becoming more connected with Pennsylvanians — and even more driven to fight for them. And through each and every role he has had, he’s taken one key piece of advice with him that his mother and I would tell him:

Choices have consequences.

I know that’s a driving force in his work. To watch Josh, someone who cares so deeply about what he’s doing, spend his days fighting to make Pennsylvanians’ lives better makes me so proud — as a Pennsylvanian, and as his dad.

That’s the kind of leader Pennsylvania needs. If you agree and you’re with Josh in this fight, can you pitch in just a few bucks to help his campaign? [[link removed]]

I was on the road with Josh on his very first campaign, and one thing I always noticed was how Josh has always listened. He truly hears what people say, and he takes that to his work.

That quality is so necessary in government today.

People tell me all the time: “We need more people like your son in government,” and that’s because they trust him. People trust Josh to elevate their issues, their voice, their stories. They trust that he cares about what they say. They trust that he’s truly listening.

Now, it’s on those of us who trust that Josh is the right leader for Pennsylvania to take action, and make it happen.

Can you donate today to Josh’s campaign to become the next Governor of Pennsylvania? [[link removed]]

Thank you,

Dr. Steve Shapiro
