Ehasz blasts Fitzpatrick for refusing joint endorsement interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer Editorial Board
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 23, 2024
Bucks County, PA – Today, Democrat Ashley Ehasz calls out her Republican opponent Brian Fitzpatrick for refusing to participate in the joint endorsement interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer Editorial Board, continuing his pattern of hiding from the media and from his constituents. The joint interview was to be conducted via Zoom, with questions directed to both candidates. Ehasz will still participate in the endorsement interview on October 15th.
“It’s just like Brian Fitzpatrick to shy away from any event that would force him to come clean about his true beliefs on abortion rights and his far-right extremist friends in Washington. His refusal to participate in the joint endorsement interview with the Inquirer is just another example of his cowardice.
“The public deserves to hear directly from their leaders about the issues that matter most to them. PA-01 is an overwhelmingly pro-choice district, and yet Brian voted for a national abortion ban that would have overturned Pennsylvania state law.
“As a combat veteran, I am committed to fighting to protect our freedoms at home just as fiercely as I did abroad. I look forward to speaking with the Inquirer about my vision for pro-choice, pro-democracy leadership as the Congresswoman representing the hardworking people of Pennsylvania’s First District.”
