United States Senator Bob Casey from Pennsylvania stopped in Crawford County Tuesday to talk to local Democrats from the steps of the county's headquarters on Diamond Park in Meadville. Casey talked about not getting much sleep of late due to helping to get the vote for "The Inflation Reduction Act" over the weekend.
Casey said the passing of the bill allows thousands of Crawford Countians to keep their healthcare because it kept the Affordable Care Act from expiring this year.

But his main reason for coming to the county was to energize the troops in what he described as a red (Republican) area. He talked about the importance of the Senator race involving Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Mehmet Oz for future votes involving voter and reproductive rights legislation as well as the future environmental concerns.
He introduced Dan Pastore who is trying to unseat United States Congressman Mike Kelly. Pastore echoed many of Casey's points.

It was a chance for local Democrats to come together. "It's important to show support our support and get [yard] signs and to talk with other like minded people," said Debbie Cagle. She and her husband Tom are dismayed by the number of people who still believe the 2020 election was fraudulent.
