Caring for our veterans

John, In his State of the Union address this past Tuesday, President Biden pledged to expand health care coverage for veterans by adding to the list of presumed service-connected disabilities. This means servicemembers will finally be able to receive health care for the conditions…

Meeting new constituents

You’ve probably seen from our campaign updates, but just in case you haven’t: the PA Supreme Court recently updated our district maps, and while Republicans are attempting to change them yet again, it remains that we will need to introduce Matt to a new set of voters for the first time this cycle…

March 4, 2022 at 8:26 PM

the ONLY Congressman to do this...

If we want to keep the House blue, we need to keep PA-08 blue. Period. Experts have named Matt as one of the top targets in Kevin McCarthy’s push to take back the House, and a recent update from the nonpartisan Cook Political Report lists the race for PA-08 as a TOSS-UP. John, did…

Staying competitive

This is one of the most competitive races on the map. John, Now more than ever, it’s so important that we keep the House blue so we can fight for lower healthcare costs, advocate for workers’ rights, and defend our democracy. Matt is not just one of the most effective legislators i…

This is real

Sending a quick note because I don’t want to take up too much of your Sunday. You’ve probably seen the new Congressional maps that came out from the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Under this new map, PA-08 is ranked as a “Toss-up” by nonpartisan election forecasters at Cook Political Report. This i…

PA-08 is heating up...

Now that analysts are sinking their teeth into the new Pennsylvania congressional maps, we’re getting a clearer picture of what we can expect in the next few months. We’ve always known that PA-08 is one of Democrats’ most important races to win, and we’re now seeing data to back t…

BREAKING: new congressional maps

John, I have big news. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court just announced our new Congressional district lines, and our district is just as competitive as it was in 2020. Back then, I won our district by less than 4 points, and now, with even more riding on us keeping PA-08 blue, we have to work even h…

Far-right money flooding into PA

John, National Republicans are investing heavily in Pennsylvania. They think they can make this a red state if they spend enough money to mislead voters and prop up fringe right-wing extremist candidates. The latest example: Republicans have already spent more than $32 million jus…

Voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around.

John — Did you hear the news? My opponent Jim Bognet just filed a lawsuit in federal court trying to force Pennsylvania to hold at-large congressional races instead of using the new district maps being drawn by our state’s Supreme Court. That means every PA congressional seat woul…

Our standards for public discourse matter.
