Please pay attention to the votes for and against legislation by our Pennsylvania representatives before you vote in 2022. For instance, the same eight GOP representatives — John Joyce, Mike Kelly, Dan Meuser, Lloyd Schmucker, Scott Perry, Guy Reschenthaler and Glenn Thompson — voted “no” on the Violence Against Women Act this month and also voted against an anti-Asian sentiment resolution in September. All that resolution did was condemn hatred against people because of their race. It would not cost any money to anyone, so why? What are our representatives trying to say about the people of our state? That we are for violence against women and Asians?
They did all vote to overturn our votes, though. So keep a tally of their votes and decide if that is truly how you feel we should be represented before the next election.
