Penn Live: Eric Seggi: Kudos to U.S. Sen. Bob Casey for standing up to China

  • Working across the aisle with Republican Senator Cornyn of Texas, Sen. Casey passed the “Outbound Investment Transparency Act,” which would screen U.S. investments in national security sectors in countries that are our adversaries, including China.
  • In doing so, the senator is ensuring that we, as a country, are better aware of risks posed when the Chinese government has access to American technologies that relate to national security.
  • I am hopeful that this bill will become a law, and I am very thankful to have a senator that is fighting not only for me, but for workers across Pennsylvania and the country.

  • Affordable and high-quality health care for seniors and individuals with disabilities remains a big concern in Pennsylvania. That is why we need to protect and strengthen Medicare Advantage, a vital part of Medicare that more need to know about.
  • I commend U.S. Sens. Bob Casey and John Fetterman for their commitment to protecting Medicare Advantage on behalf of Pennsylvanians. It is crucial we elected officials continue to support and advocate for Medicare Advantage, as it remains a lifeline for countless individuals.
