I’m thinking about running for Senate

Pennsylvania will be the most important Senate race in 2022. I’m confident we can win if we go for it. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌…

Legal Weed for PA

Pennsylvanians are tired of waiting

John, Last year, I visited all of Pennsylvania's 67 counties on a listening tour. The goal? To gauge support for legalizing recreational marijuana across the Commonwealth. The outcome? Pennsylvanians overwhelmingly supported legalization. In response, Governor Tom Wolf and…

This will end, and it will end sooner and with a better outcome for all Pennsylvanians if we all do what we should do right now.

John, This an uncertain time, and it can be difficult not to pair uncertainty with anxiety or fear. What's important to remember is that all the cancellations and closures that are likely making you feel unsettled right now are being put in place to protect us, not to stifle…

John, You're about to read the most obvious statement you'll probably read all day: 2020 is the most consequential election year in a generation. In 2016, Donald Trump won Pennsylvania by just 44,292 votes out of more than six million cast. It was a crushing blow, but i…
