PENNSYLVANIA – Tonight, Pennsylvanians watched as Senator Bob Casey held Wall Street CEO David McCormick accountable for his dangerous, out-of-touch positions and record of putting profits over Pennsylvanians.
Here’s what folks said about Casey’s commanding performance as he stood up for Pennsylvanians:
Bob Casey’s Record of Delivering for Pennsylvanians:
- @MadelineDean: The vote to restore abortion rights will be a crucial one. We will need a *Pennsylvania* Senator who will vote the will of Pennsylvanians. Sen. @Bob_Casey has proven he will respect women’s freedom, privacy, and right reproductive care. #PASen #PASenDebate
- @CaptMarkKelly: Pennsylvanians have a fighter in the Senate with @Bob_Casey, who is working every day to restore the protections of Roe, stand up for veterans, and lower costs for working families. We need to send him back to the Senate on Election Day.
- @brianschatz: My friend @Bob_Casey is one of the most effective members of the Senate. With his help, we’ve cut prescription drug costs, expanded the child tax credit, and made record investments in infrastructure in Pennsylvania and across the country.
- @ChrisCoonsforDE: It’s pretty simple: @Bob_Casey is fighting to expand economic opportunities in Pennsylvania to ensure Pennsylvanians have good-paying jobs to support and raise their families. He’s making the case in tonight’s debate.
- @benraylujan: A champion for working families, @Bob_Casey is fighting to lower everyday costs for families and to make it easier for Pennsylvanians to get a job and raise a family in the Commonwealth. He’s on the side of Pennsylvanians, not corporations and billionaires. #PASen #PASenDebate
- @morethanmySLE: Due to my current health, I don’t stamina to endorse multiple campaigns, so I chose 1: Senator Bob Casey. Over the last 7 years I’ve advocated with Senator Casey on health care. He cares for EVERY constituent, NOT just who voted for him. Pennsylvania, Bob Casey truly CARES.
McCormick’s Dangerous Anti-Choice Agenda
- @pennslinger: McCormick agrees with the 10% of Pennsylvanians who want to ban abortion. That’s an extremist position.
- @JeniceArmstrong: Dave McCormick just called abortion a “states rights issue.” He’s wrong. It’s a women’s rights issue. This is especially disturbing coming from a girl dad.
- @treeaston: Really grateful for Bob Casey’s clarity on restoring the rights SCOTUS snatched from women across the country. His voice in particular matters here. Connecticut Dave simply cannot be trusted.
- @HeartlandSignal: Pennsylvania GOP Senate candidate Dave McCormick gives three different answers in nine seconds on who should decide reproductive rights. “I believe that [abortion is] so polarizing that the courts should decide, judges should decide. People should decide. And there’s very different views across states, so I believe it’s a states rights issue.
- @kelsientaggart: Dave McCormick’s cruelty is on display as he defends states that implement draconian abortion bans that put women at risk. #PASen “You can’t have it both ways.”
- @American_Bridge: FACT CHECK: Dave McCormick favors banning abortion with no exceptions for rape and incest. #PASen
- @dabbs346: REMINDER: Dave McCormick said he’s comfortable with other states banning abortion, and criticized Dr. Oz for bashing Alabama’s 6-week ban. #pasen
- @dscc: Bob Casey voted to codify Roe. David McCormick supports an abortion ban with no exceptions for rape or incest.
- @davidwillett: Dave McCormick is absolutely fine with women in different states having different rights, different access to health care, different opportunities. #PASEN
- @PennsylvaniaPa7: People deciding when it comes to abortion means abortion is legal and patients decide whether to have one or not. Politicians making abortions illegal is NOT “people” deciding. States rights does NOT mean “people” deciding. Don’t let Dave McCormick decide for you! #PaSen
McCormick Selling Out American Workers While Investing In America’s Adversaries
- @JeniceArmstrong: When I see Dave McCormick, I think of underpaid teachers and how poorly their pensions fared when he was wheeling and dealing with their money. This alone should be disqualifying.
- @dscc: David McCormick said he ran a “great investment firm.” This is his record: Investing millions in China’s largest fentanyl producer, Investing in Chinese military companies, Investing in America’s adversaries. David McCormick made a fortune selling out Pennsylvanians to line his own pocket — and he thinks that’s “great.”
- @American_Bridge: Dave McCormick: “My career is something I’m extremely proud of.” As CEO, Dave McCormick’s hedge fund shed hundreds of jobs in PA after pocketing state money. #PASen https://t.co/Wz5GGciRdJ
- @Sarah_Guggs: McCormick can run from his legacy at Bridgewater, but he can’t hide from the facts: As CEO he increased Bridgewater’s investment in China by 108,000% #PASen
- @pennslinger: Dave McCormick was in contact with Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, before the 2008 recession. Dalio made over $700 million betting against the US dollar and then hired McCormick as president of Bridgewater
- @zeketayler: Dave McCormick wants to give billionaires more tax breaks. @Bob_Casey wants to hold billionaires to task.
