Last night, I had an excellent conversation with the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh’s Community Relations Council. We need a Congresswoman who shows up. In each of our communities. Consistently. jewishchronicle.timesofisrael.com/summer-lee-has…

Our reproductive rights are under attack – and our only defense is the ballot box. Re-electing President Biden is the best thing we can do to stop Trump from continuing to stack the Supreme Court with extremists who want to strip us of our rights. There is no margin for error.

My opponent – Summer Lee – wishes she was running against a Republican. She's not. I'm the only candidate in this race who proudly backs Joe Biden 100%. I loudly denounce Donald Trump, Jeff Yass, and the uncommitted movement – all of which seek to undermine the President.

No child should go to school wondering if they're going to survive math class. We need decisive action to stop the epidemic of gun violence in this nation – and we need it now. Proud to stand with Moms Demand Action in this work.

We are praying for the safety of those in the region under threat right now by the Iranian regime’s first direct attack against our ally Israel. I applaud President Biden for his leadership preemptively forming a defensive coalition of neighboring countries to defend against this attack.

Representing 15k+ workers, the Pennsylvania Laborers' District Council are the backbone of our economy here in #PA12. They deserve fair wages, secure benefits, and safer workplaces – and I'm proud to have them on my team.

The United States Senate passed a critical, bipartisan bill to provide much-needed aide to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. House Republicans are refusing to bring it up – and my opponent Summer Lee is joining them in blocking a discharge petition. Time to stop the games.

My opponent Summer Lee just voted against the Iran Sanctions Accountability Act. A bipartisan bill (it passed 408-13) meant to ensure humanitarian aid reaches those it's meant to support – and not used to fund terrorism. An alarming – and telling – vote.

This week, Summer Lee shunned the vast majority of Democrats and voted against: - The No Paydays for Hostage Takers Act - The No Technology for Terror Act - The Solidify Iran Sanctions Act - The Iran Sanctions Accountability Act We deserve better than performative votes.

Our campaign has earned support from a broad coalition of unions, Democratic clubs, and more. In Congress, I'll deliver for every corner of #PA12 – and I'm so grateful to have such a large grassroots team.

I think we can all agree that we should condemn Iran's unprecedented attack on Israel. Well – not Summer Lee. She just voted against ~95% of Democrats – refusing to condemn this assault on our ally.

Today, Summer Lee was the only Democratic member of the Pennsylvania delegation to vote against delivering aid to our allies – Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. She's woefully out of step with the values of our district and our state.

More targeted, antisemitic hate in Pittsburgh. We should all be condemning this loudly. And showing up for our neighbors in the face of these attacks.

Tonight, the Jewish community here in Pittsburgh and across in the world will celebrate Passover. To all our neighbors celebrating, chag sameach!
