Let's Set The Record Straight There's a lot of attention being paid to a photograph of for- mer Gov. Ed Rendell and me in 2006. It's time to separate truth from fiction. When that photo was taken, I was mayor of DuBois. Gov. Rendell came to town for our annual Community Days cele- bration. Any mayor is obligated to be hospitable to a visiting dignitary, regardless of political views. During that visit, the governor announced state funding for DuBois that included $550,000 for a new fire truck for Friend- ship Hose Co. No.2, $300,000 for air packs for the entire fire department, $1.8 million to help with sewer line reconstruc- tion throughout the city, more than $1 million in parks and recreation funding and $100,000 for the Edward V. Cherry Amphitheater in City Park. Now for the wild fiction contained in mail pieces being distributed and paid for by dark money from Philadelphia millionaires. Frankly, I'm increasingly offended at the politics of per- sonal destruction and innuendo that Dush & Co. are engaged in. So, to set the record straight, again. * I did not and still do not support Ed Rendell's political views. * I was not and am not a socialist and I do not support so- cialist policies. * My campaign is not bankrolled by Harrisburg politicians. In fact, I have received contributions from hundreds of indi- viduals in the district totaling hundreds of thousands of dol- lars. * Joe Scarnati is supporting me. * I'm 100 percent behind President Trump's re-election. (Cris Dush gave our president a C+). * I did not support either a personal income tax increase or out-of-control state spending. * I have not supported, nor do I or will I ever support any limitations on our God-given rights to own and carry fire- arms. * I have not supported, nor do I or will I ever support tax- payer-funded abortions. I cannot be any clearer than that. Any suggestion to the contrary is a lie. Despite our differonces, I worked with Gov. Rendell to get something done for DuBois. That's called integrity. I didn't apologize for it then and I'm not about to apologize for it now. My top priority as your Senator will be to work to get things done for the residents of the 25th District. To do so, I may have to work with poople I don't agree with. But if that's what it takes, that's what I'll do. That's called leadership. I won't apologize for it, either.
