Ehasz challenges Fitzpatrick to debate

Ehasz

Democrat Ashley Ehasz recently challenged opponent Brian Fitzpatrick to a public, televised debate to ensure voters have the opportunity to hear directly from the candidates on the issues that matter most to them before they cast their ballots. Bucks County Community College, historically the host of PA-01 congressional debates, recently rescinded its invitation to host the debate. 

Ehasz said in a statement, “Bucks and Montgomery County voters deserve the opportunity to hear directly from the candidates, particularly as my opponent Brian Fitzpatrick obscures his own anti-abortion voting record and he cozies up to MAGA extremists like Jim Jordan and Speaker Mike Johnson.

“Time and time again, Brian runs from his own record. He evades reporters, refuses to engage with voters in public forums, and stays silent on his support for Trump and his Project 2025 agenda. Voters cannot trust that our democracy and our basic freedoms will not be infringed upon by Brian’s cowardice and failure to stand up to extremists. 

“The stakes of this election could not be higher. PA-01 is an overwhelmingly pro-choice district that is currently represented by an overwhelmingly anti-abortion extremist who is more concerned with catering to his party bosses in Washington than the hardworking people in Pennsylvania’s First District.

“As a combat veteran, I will work tirelessly to protect our freedoms here at home just as fiercely as I did overseas, including by voting for the Women’s Health Protection Act to codify Roe v. Wade into law and protecting the freedom, fairness and transparency of our democracy.

“Bucks and Montgomery communities should be able to hear directly from their leaders. I stand ready to debate, because I am ready to lead. Are you, Brian?”
