🚨WATCH: We just launched our new ad.
In Congress, I’ve led the fight to hold big railroads accountable for derailments like the one in East Palestine—working across the aisle for rail safety legislation.
I won’t let corporations put their profits over our families’ safety.

My opponent is “honored” to be endorsed by a guy who tried to kill hard-earned benefits for veterans like me exposed to burn pits in Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. Pat Toomey’s betrayal of us veterans is something we’ll never forget. Disgraceful.
Here’s what I have to say to Pat Toomey and his fellow Republicans blocking benefits for veterans like me who were exposed to burn pits. Just disgraceful stuff from politicians who wrap themselves in the flag.
