John,
I’m gonna talk about growing up in Pennsylvania, but first, I have to ask:
[ [link removed] ]Can you chip in $5 to become a Founding Donor to our
general election campaign? I’m *so* grateful for your
support, John, (even if you
think Wawa > Sheetz).
Ok, now onto the good stuff.
I was born in Reading, Pennsylvania when my parents were just two
teenagers starting out on their own. I love my parents, even if Gisele is
their favorite.
We started out struggling. My dad was a union grocery worker at ShopRite,
working night shifts. The union way of life helped keep our family
together while he went to college. Dad ended up graduating, and got a good
job as an underwriter.
After we moved, I grew up in suburban south central Pennsylvania. I
graduated from Central York High School and went to college in Reading,
just like my dad did. When I left Pennsylvania for grad school, I *never*
envisioned myself ending up in public service — not as Mayor of Braddock
for 15 years, and certainly not as Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania.

But I came back to Pennsylvania because that's where my heart is. And
alongside my amazing wife, Gisele, I have dedicated my life to improving
our Commonwealth.
When Pennsylvania lawmakers pushed outdated, discriminatory policies
banning marriage equality, I officiated one of the first gay marriages in
Pennsylvania. 🌈
When Braddock was overlooked and counted out, we created jobs and got
young people engaged. We created a community center, urban gardens, and a
free store run by Gisele. ✊
And when the Pennsylvania GOP sent their flag police to take down my weed
+ pride flags, I put them back up. I’m just gonna keep doing that. ✅
[ [link removed] ]If that’s the kind of never-give-up attitude you want to see in the
U.S. Senate, can you chip in $5 to join Fetterman for PA as
a Founding Donor? To be successful, we’re gonna need to build a huge
campaign across all 67 counties in Pennsylvania.
[ [link removed] ]Contribute $5
You may like Wawa more than Sheetz. You may say #FlyEaglesFly while I say
#HereWeGo. But help send me to the U.S. Senate and I’ll fight for *all* of
youse, just like I’ve been fighting for Pennsylvania my whole life.
Thanks,
John
