PA-SEN: Bucks County will determine control of the Senate and House, Josh Shapiro says in stumping for Bob Casey [View all]

Gov. Josh Shapiro campaigned for U.S. Sen. Bob Casey in Lower Bucks County on Monday, telling supporters gathered at Neshaminy Brewing in Croydon that Casey “understands what you’re dealing with in your community.”

“The senator is always there for us to deliver a check, to make sure key legislation passes that helps Pennsylvanians, like capping insulin at 35 bucks for our seniors,” Shapiro said. “When you think about authenticity, when you think about someone who’s like us, who shares our values, who gives a damn about us, who can go to those halls of power and not forget where he came from, that is Bob Casey.”

Casey, a third-term Democrat, is locked in a tough reelection fight against Republican Dave McCormick. Although Casey has led in the polls throughout the race, he has said he expects it to be a tight race by the time Election Day arrives on Nov. 5.

Casey on Monday largely stuck to his usual stump speech, saying in part that McCormick would vote with the GOP caucus against bills to expand abortion rights, improve voting access, and strengthen labor unions.
