Special election

ADRIANA PENA

State College

We have a special election this May. Right after he was sworn into office, Tom Marino resigned, leaving us without a representative in Congress.

It’s time to elect Marc Friedenberg, who will do the job if we give it to him.

He’ll fight for full broadband access, so that no corner of his district will be unable, for lack of broadband, to attract investment in our communities. He will fight for access to health care, to end the pathetic spectacle of thousands of hardworking Americans using GoFundMe to pay their medical bills. He’ll fight to mitigate climate change and turn the challenge into an opportunity, because green jobs aren’t just good for the environment, they’re good for the economy.

He’ll fight the misguided trade war that’s pushing too many farmers into bankruptcy – with the added insult that the payments designed to ease their burden didn’t get to them because of the Government Shutdown.

He’ll fight the opioid epidemic, serving his constituents, not Big Pharma. Big Pharma misled doctors, lying that Oxycotin wasn’t addictive, when they knew full well it was, and now they’re marketing a drug to treat the addiction they caused, and raising prices! Marc will work to fix the law Marino authored, that allowed our streets to be flooded with opioids.

If you voted for Marc Friedenberg last November, vote for him again. If you didn’t, take a second look at him, and see that he has much to offer you.
