My name is Janelle Stelson, and I’m running to represent PA’s 10th District in Congress. As someone who’s been covering your stories for nearly four decades, I see things as they are. Pennsylvania is ready for a change—and we can beat Scott Perry.
.
@RepScottPerry
whose phone was seized by the FBI in connection with his involvement in Jan 6 is now overseeing the FBI. We cannot play games with our country's most important secrets. Every American should be outraged.
I am honored to be your nominee to take on insurrectionist
@RepScottPerry
. Together, we can defeat his extremism and chaos and bring commonsense problem-solving back to Congress.
Will you chip in today to join our movement to defeat Perry?
.
@JanelleStelson
WON her primary here in PA.
My first home was
#PA10
, so it fills me with pride to endorse Janelle as she takes on insurrectionist Congressman Perry to help flip the House blue.
Let’s help her out👇
Now that Lauren Boebert has moved to a safer district,
@RepScottPerry
is *the most vulnerable far-right incumbent in the country.*
I’m proud to be the Democrat leading by double digits in
#PA10
. We can do so much better than Perry— and we will.
No politician (are you listening
@RepScottPerry
?) should ever be in charge of our personal healthcare decisions. Period. Vote me into Congress and I promise to champion making Roe the law of the land. Again.
Even Scott Perry’s Republican colleagues did not want him on the House Intelligence Committee, but here we are. The man whose phone was seized by the FBI is now… overseeing the FBI.
Remember when
@RepScottPerry
had no problem ignoring a Congressional subpoena (2 years ago)? One reason so many people hate Washington is politicians like Perry who think the rules do not apply to them.
This is rich…
The guy whose cellphone was seized by the FBI for his role in the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection wants to oversee the FBI. That’s scary. Yet another reason to fire
@RepScottPerry
.
.
@AdamKinzinger
is a conservative Republican, and a former colleague of
@PatriotsPerry
. The only way to get Perry off the Intelligence Committee is to defeat him this November.
🚨 HUGE NEWS 🚨
Our campaign was just added to the
@DCCC
’s Red to Blue program!
This is one of the most competitive races in the country and the best chance we have at defeating a Freedom Caucus member. In November we will unseat election denier

You were at the center of the effort to overthrow our democracy in 2020 because you didn’t agree with the votes of Pennsylvanians and the American people. You don’t get to pretend you care about the Constitution anymore. Delete your account.
Neither
@RepScottPerry
nor
@RepMTG
belongs in Congress.
Both are dangerous conspiracy theorists -- spreading baseless rumors and demonizing law enforcement.
But MTG is in a heavily GOP district, while I'm running against Perry in a swing district.
Together, we can defeat him!
.
@RepMTG
gave money to
@RepScottPerry
.
Now Perry won’t denounce her false and dangerous accusations against law enforcement.
Perry previously voted to defund the FBI and against making it a crime to injure police officers.
Perry + MTG make us less safe
Lemme make sure I’m getting this right. The big snack companies are tricking working people into paying more for less, and YOU are defending the big corporations?!? Putting your campaign contributors first is a bad look, Congressman.
You may be surprised to learn Congressman Scott Perry and I have at least one thing in common. We were both born on May 27th! Happy birthday, Congressman! I hope next year you have more free time to celebrate…
Today I am excited to release our first TV ad “The Real Freedom Caucus”! The ad exposes Congressman Scott Perry’s dangerous track record of taking away Central Pennsylvanians’ rights by supporting a national abortion ban and banning IVF. Take a look ⬇️
.
@RepScottPerry
has spent ~$300,000~ of other folks' money to pay *his* legal bills for his central role in Jan 6.
We cannot afford two more years of this extremist.
.
@RepScottPerry
voted yesterday to restore a Confederate monument. The Confederates were traitors & slaveholders whose ideas merit scorn from all Americans. Perry’s embrace of them says a lot about his disdain for freedom.
NEW: Scott Perry said in a closed door briefing with lawmakers on Tues that the Ku Klux Klan is the “the military wing of the Democratic party” and that migrants coming to the US “have no interest in being Americans,”according to audio shared with CNN
Party doesn’t matter, wrong is wrong and corrupt is corrupt.
Sometimes in life, you have to make tough decisions. This isn’t one of them.
Senator Menendez must resign.
The race for Pennsylvania’s 10th District is one Democrats hope to make competitive this year as they try to win back control of the House. That challenge will fall to
@JanelleStelson
, who beat five rivals for the nomination to challenge
@RepScottPerry
.
When we beat
@RepScottPerry
, it will be thanks to SO many volunteers all across the 10th. Today, we submitted our second batch of signatures from Democratic voters— bringing us to 3,000+ from 60+ munis, collected by a 100+ volunteer force. I could not be prouder of Team Stelson!
Just when you think
@RepScottPerry
couldn’t sink any lower, he outdoes himself.
He was just caught sharing Twitter posts from a neo-Nazi account that praised Adolf Hitler.
I am proud to be endorsed by
@theWelcomePAC
. Its mission of supporting a new generation of authentic candidates focused on problem solving and strengthening our democracy resonates deeply with me. Together we will beat Scott Perry. I am all about big tent pragmatism.
Not only did
@RepScottPerry
help incite violence on Jan. 6— he’s using his shameful efforts to raise money for his campaign.
Check out how he talks to his supporters... and whines that Democrats ran Congress like “a prison camp.”
We’re so much better than this,

“Time and again, Scott Perry has voted against the middle class. Janelle is a trusted voice in Central Pennsylvania who will stand with us to ensure the trades thrive in our region. We are proud to stand with her campaign to defeat Scott Perry,” - Jim Enders
Honored to be endorsed by
@humanrightscam2
! In Congress I will work to help create a world where everyone is free to live authentically and without fear of prejudice or hate. 🏳️🌈
Watch
@RepScottPerry
side with Marjorie Taylor Greene and threaten more chaos and gridlock in Washington. More and more Republicans and Independents are getting tired of Perry’s antics.
More bad press in our district for
@RepScottPerry
for conspiring to overturn the 2020 election and helping ignite the violence on January 6.
The writing is on the wall across Central PA. We must defeat him. Get involved here:
Congrats to

Voters are ready to get rid of extremism. We will do the same right here in

"Two separate groups of Republicans met with Johnson this week... One Republican, who was granted anonymity to speak candidly, said no previous committee assignment has sparked as much internal anger as Johnson’s decision about Perry."

But Perry can’t escape the judgement of Central Pennsylvania voters on November 5. We have the power to fire Congressman Chaos.

Two years ago, I was live on the news set when the Supreme Court handed down the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade. I looked into the camera and had to tell every woman watching that her rights had been rolled back 50 years.
No politician (are you listening
@RepScottPerry
?) should ever be in charge of our personal healthcare decisions. Period. Vote me into Congress and I promise to champion making Roe the law of the land. Again.
Praying for the safety of President Trump and everyone at the Pennsylvania rally. Violence has no place in American politics. I’m grateful to the Secret Service for their swift action and join with all Americans who unite against this type of horror.
Nearly every PA rep— R and D— voted last week to keep the government open. But once again, Congressman Chaos (aka
@RepScottPerry
) voted to shut down social security offices, stop small businesses from getting loans, and slow down road repairs. Enough is enough. Vote Perry out.
This is worse than the status quo.
Republicans were not elected by our constituents to spend with reckless abandon, nor to vote for more federal spending without policy changes.
Here are
@RepScottPerry
and Rep. Matt Rosendale.
These two allies vote together 95% of the time -- and both sponsored the Life at Conception Act, which seeks to ban IVF treatments.
Their extreme views on IVF have no place in Congress.
.
@RepScottPerry
calls Candace Owens his "inspiration" who is "fighting for what's right." To Congressman Perry, I suppose that means antisemitism and fringe conspiracy theories.
You can tell a lot about a person by the company he keeps.
It was great to see my union brothers and sisters from IBEW 229 York at the York Revolution baseball game and 4th of July fireworks to live music from the York Symphony Orchestra! Best crowd anywhere— thanks for all the support!

You said it, Cassidy. The more headlines like this one, the fewer places

Once again,
@RepScottPerry
is getting national press for his efforts to ignore our votes leading up to Jan. 6– and cover up the evidence.
What is Perry worried about the public reading?
159 years ago, the news of emancipation reached slaves in Galveston, Texas, marking the end of slavery in the United States.
Today, on

, we celebrate freedom, reflect on our journey toward justice, and commit to a future where equality and opportunity shine for all.
The
#EMTALA
decision should not be considered a victory. It's a delay. Politicians like
@RepScottPerry
will continue their crusade to outlaw all abortions, even in the most extreme cases like rape and incest and when the woman’s life is at risk. We must stop them this November.

A few years ago, no women represented PA in Congress.

The Supreme Court may have cleared
@RepScottPerry
to be on the ballot, but they can’t protect him from voters who are tired of being represented by someone who wants to take away their freedom and their democracy, and make them pay more for healthcare.
I will bring the commonsense, pragmatic leadership we deserve— to grow the economy for our middle class, improve access to high-quality healthcare, and cut costs for Pennsylvanians. I am proud to have the support of

@RepScottPerry
cheered the end of Roe v. Wade— it’s a key part of why I’m running for Congress.
Perry believes the government should force some women to have children... and prevent other women who want children from giving birth to them.
He’s no friend of freedom.
The Alabama Supreme Court has ruled that frozen, unimplanted embryos qualify as human children under state law.
IVF has long been in the crosshairs of the anti-abortion movement, and this unprecedented decision immediately imperils all IVF access throughout Alabama.
“Perry has been a vicious opponent of organizing and workplace protections. He has actively allowed companies to put our lives in danger. Janelle is the trusted voice and advocate we need. The choice could not be clearer." - President Cecil E. Roberts

, your legislation to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act would make seniors pay more for Rx drugs and INCREASE the deficit. Don’t pretend now that you actually care about reducing deficits.
The U.S. is $34 trillion in debt, we won’t do anything to fix our own border, but
@SenateGOP
has no problem giving billions to other countries.
Remember when the Dems defunded U.S. military efforts in Vietnam? Now Americans do business & vacation there.
My mother is an incredibly special person. Growing up, she taught my three sisters and me to follow our dreams, to always tell the truth, and to serve others. She has always been my biggest supporter. Happy Mothers Day to every mother out there, who helps their children shine!
51 years ago, the Roe v. Wade ruling protected a woman’s right to have an abortion.
I was live on the set when the news came down about Roe being overturned. It took a chunk out of my heart to report that women’s rights were being rolled back.
@RepScottPerry
won’t stop until
To be clear this bill would:
-Ban abortion with no exceptions
- Ban IVF
- Ban life saving procedures that protect women
Not only would it be a NATIONWIDE abortion ban, but Perry wants the strictest ban imaginable.

says he might side with Marjorie Taylor Greene to dump the Speaker and plunge the House into another leadership crisis. Congressman Chaos strikes again!
Scott Perry not closing the door on motion to vacate:
“Many of us don’t like where we’ve been headed”
Would you vote for it: “it depends on the context”
Red line? “I don’t want to see Ukraine funding clean. …That would be a pretty big problem”

Huge win for Democrat Jim Prokopiak in yesterday’s special election for the PA State House.
We have the momentum to defeat extremists— up and down the ballot. Take note,
@RepScottPerry
. You're next.
We won’t forget that— in the words of a former Trump staffer—
@RepScottPerry
was “central to the planning of Jan. 6.”
We won’t forget Perry conspired to throw out our votes and prevent a peaceful transition of power.
Perry’s actions helped inspire me to run. His time is up.
