  • Mcconnell Announces Senate Republican Committee Assignments for the 117Th Congress
    For Immediate Release, Wednesday, February 3, 2021 Contacts: David Popp, Doug Andres Robert Steurer, Stephanie Penn McConnell Announces Senate Republican Committee Assignments for the 117th Congress Praises Senators Crapo and Tim Scott for their work on the Committee on Committees WASHINGTON, D.C. – Following the 50-50 power-sharing agreement finalized earlier today, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced the Senate Republican Conference Committee Assignments for the 117th Congress. Leader McConnell once again selected Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID) to chair the Senate Republicans’ Committee on Committees, the panel responsible for committee assignments for the 117th Congress. This is the ninth consecutive Congress in which Senate leadership has asked Crapo to lead this important task among Senate Republicans. Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) assisted in the committee selection process as he did in the previous three Congresses. “I want to thank Mike and Tim for their work. They have both earned the trust of our colleagues in the Republican Conference by effectively leading these important negotiations in years past and this year was no different. Their trust and experience was especially important as we enter a power-sharing agreement with Democrats and prepare for equal representation on committees,” McConnell said. “I am very grateful for their work.” “I appreciate Leader McConnell’s continued trust in having me lead the important work of the Committee on Committees,” said Senator Crapo. “Americans elected an evenly-split Senate, and working together to achieve policy solutions will be critical in continuing to advance meaningful legislation impacting all Americans. Before the COVID-19 pandemic hit our nation, our economy was the strongest it has ever been.

Since our last correspondence regarding the city of Lebanon, it has come to my attention that EPA is fining three additional municipalities (York. Manor Township, and Swatara Township) tor allegedly failing to comply with their National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA OFP). This raises total EPA fines pending against Pennsylvania municipalities to $128,608. It is my hope that we can lind a compromisc that allows thcse fines to bc waived. I appreeiatc EPA's letter of March, 13 2012 commenting on the fine EPA levicd against the city of Lebanon. That said. I feci this letter was an incomplete explanation as to why EPA is taking such aggressive action against Lebanon and did not adequately explain EPA's rationale for assessing such a large penalty. 1 also appreciate EPA's stated commitment to keeping PA DEI' infonned ofall enforcement activities, though I remain disappointed that EPA failed to provide PA DEP with official copies of enforccment documents until more than 30 days after they had been issued.

    February 11, 2016 The Honorable Robert Casey, Jr. The Honorable Pat Toomey United States Senate United States Senate 393 Russell Senate Office Building 248 Russell Senate Office Building Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Senators Casey and Toomey: Daily the undersigned are engaged in diverse work to ensure every child is connected to a safe, stable and supported family. Despite the diversity of our work, we are united in our deep understanding that the foundation for lifelong health, well-being, educational success, and economic opportunity is established within the critical years of early childhood, especially from birth to age three. We write to express how encouraged we are that you serve on the United States Senate Committee on Finance. Your commitment to the nurture, protection and early learning of Pennsylvania’s youngest children will be instrumental when the Senate Finance Committee considers the Family First Act in 2016. This legislation and its commitment to upfront, time-limited, evidence-based services for children who safely remain at home with their family arrives as Pennsylvania confronts an alarming and relentless heroin and opioid epidemic. Between 2010 and 2014, more than 7,500 infants were born onto Medicaid and diagnosed with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) in Pennsylvania. Heroin and other opioids taken during pregnancy, including drugs prescribed to a pregnant woman as part of her participation in substance abuse treatment (e.g., Methadone Buprenorphine), can result in NAS. The proposed Family First legislation is precedent-setting as it seeks to amend federal law to include a subtitle related to Investing in Prevention and Family Services.

Those include his willingness to consider some increased government revenues when he was a member of the so-called supercommittee in 2011 and his partnership with West Virginia Democrat Joe Manchin in calling for expanded background checks for prospective gun- buyers in 2013. Toomey was elected to the Senate in 2010 on a small-government, lower taxes platform that was cheered by groups such as the Senate Conservatives Fund, Freedom Works, Club for Growth and Tea Party activists, all of which gave him their endorsements. He headed the Club for Growth, an advocacy and fundraising group that favors limited government and low taxes, for four years before he came to the Senate. He’s often been described as a “conservative firebrand,” based on his Club for Growth presidency and his actions during three terms in the House. Toomey has amassed a lifetime rating of well above 90 percent from the American Conservative Union and the Club for Growth.

Republicans could have a 55-45 Senate majority if: Rep. Martha McSally defeats Rep. Kyrsten Sinema for the Arizona Senate seat – McSally currently is ahead by 0.9%. Matt Rosendale, who currently leads by 0.7%, defeats incumbent Sen. Jon Tester in Montana. Gov. Rick Scott defeats Sen. Bill Nelson in Florida – Scott currently leads by 0.4%. Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith defeats Democrat Mike Espy in a Mississippi run-off election later this month. In the House, Democrats scored a net gain of at least 26 seats and will have at least a 222-seat majority, with a potential for as many as 229 seats.

    Please attribute this information to: Monmouth University Poll West Long Branch, NJ 07764 www.monmouth.edu/polling _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ For immediate release: Contact: Thursday, October 7, 2010 PATRICK MURRAY 732-263-5858 (office) 732-979-6769 (cell) [email protected] PENNSYLVANIA CD07: MEEHAN v. LENTZ Republican nominee holds narrow lead; but both GOP and Dem Party disliked In the race to succeed Joe Sestak in Pennsylvania’s 7th Congressional District, Republican Pat Meehan holds a narrow 4 point lead over Democrat Bryan Lentz. The Monmouth University Poll finds Meehan leading Lentz by a 49% to 45% margin among likely voters in this district. Meehan, a former U.S. Attorney garners personal ratings of 44% favorable to 26% unfavorable. State Representative Lentz gets similar ratings of 37% favorable to 25% unfavorable. President Barack Obama won this district by 13 points in 2008. Today, though, 7 th District voters give him a negative job performance rating of 44% approve to 50% disapprove. Among those who voted for Obama two years ago, 77% say they will vote for Democrat Lentz, but 16% will cast their ballots for Meehan on November 2. By comparison, 88% of John McCain voters from 2008 will support GOP nominee Meehan, versus just 8% who will vote for Lentz. Overall, 61% of voters in Pennsylvania’s 7 th think the country is on the wrong track compared with 36% who say it is headed in the right direction. “This district mirrors the national mood. Voters are disappointed with the way the country has gone over the past two years and blame both political parties, but they have to choose someone,” said Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Polling Institute.
