Former Republican Chief Justice of Pennsylvania Supreme Court Ronald Castille Endorses Bob Casey for U.S. Senate
PENNSYLVANIA – Today, Ronald Castille, former Chief Justice of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, District Attorney of Philadelphia, and lifelong Republican, endorsed Bob Casey for re-election to the U.S. Senate. A United States Marine Corps veteran who was disabled in the Vietnam War, Chief Justice Castille is a decorated veteran, receiving the Purple Heart and Bronze Star among other honors, and has a long career of public service to the city of Philadelphia and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
“I’ve known Bob Casey for nearly two decades, since he was first elected to the Senate. He is a lifelong Pennsylvanian and a dedicated public servant who has always shown up for our Commonwealth,” said former Chief Justice Ronald Castille. “While David McCormick has spent his career lining his pockets on Wall Street, Bob Casey has been serving the people of Pennsylvania. As a life-long Republican, I’m supporting Bob Casey for his proven track record of delivering for Pennsylvanians across the Commonwealth, strong commitment to our veterans, and leadership on the Aging Committee protecting Social Security and Medicare for our senior citizens. At this critical crossroad in our democracy, we need people like Bob Casey representing Pennsylvania in Washington.”
Senator Bob Casey is committed to upholding America’s promise to look after our veterans who have made the greatest sacrifices serving our country. He has worked across the aisle to help veterans have access to the robust health care benefits they’ve earned and receive the recognition they rightfully deserve, including backing the PACT Act, which has helped more than 32,000 Pennsylvania veterans access care. He is also a leader in the Senate in ensuring Americans with disabilities can get a high-quality education, strong health care benefits, and secure employment.
Senator Casey is ranked among the most effective and bipartisan senators and has worked across the aisle to deliver for all 67 counties, bringing good-paying jobs, broadband, child care, and public safety to the Commonwealth. He has stood up for democracy and always acts in the best interest of Pennsylvania.
