The Issues

These are tough times for Pennsylvania families and businesses. As I travel around our state I hear the concerns average Pennsylvanians have about Washington's continuing runaway spending and mounting job losses here in our state. While families and businesses tighten their belts, the federal government continues to drive our nation deeper into debt.

Pennsylvanians are concerned that the proposals being pushed in Washington on health care, taxes, and other issues make it harder for the economy to grow, harder to create jobs, and harder to get us out of this recession. Pennsylvania needs representatives who will focus on creating new jobs and leading us through the harsh economic climate.  That’s why I am committed to bringing the values of Pennsylvania to Washington to turn things around.

I want to run a campaign focused on ideas. Please take some time to read my positions on the issues and see how you can get involved with my campaign to change Washington and get our country back on track.

 

Pat's Record

Law enforcement isn’t just about putting criminals behind bars. When people feel safe and secure in their communities, businesses thrive and prosper, jobs are created, and neighborhoods stabilize. When entrepreneurs with energy and new ideas are able to do business on a level playing field and can succeed based on their ability and initiative, we all win. Pat Meehan has spent his career as a prosecutor working not just to punish offenders but to protect and preserve the integrity of our communities, our businesses, and our resources. He has worked to change the kind corrupt political culture that stifles growth and investment. He has worked to change the environment in urban neighborhoods so small businesses can open their doors without fear. He has gone after corporate executives who tried to cheat investors. The list of convictions is long but Pat knew his job wasn’t finished when a case was closed. He knew victory for hard-working taxpayers would be achieved only when they felt free to pursue their goals and dreams. Pat knows true success, as a prosecutor or legislator, is seen only at street level.
