PA GOP, Keith Rothfus Seek To “Fire Pelosi”

CRANBERRY –- 4th Congressional District candidate Keith Rothfus and Allegheny County Republican Committee Chairman Jim Roddey joined a host of supporters today as the PA GOP made its latest stop on its statewide “PA Fire Pelosi” Tour.

“It’s time that the people of the 4th Congressional District had a leader in Washington who’s not afraid to stand up against the Obama-Pelosi agenda,” Rothfus said. “With a Democratic Congress whose spending has gotten completely out-of-control, it’s time to bring some fiscal sanity to Washington. My opponent votes with Nancy Pelosi nearly 90% of the time, and continues to allow a San Francisco liberal to set the agenda for the 4th Congressional District.”

“Today, we begin the final countdown to firing Nancy Pelosi and one of her closest friends, Jason Altmire,” Roddey said. “For the past four years, the people of the 4th Congressional District have been forced to watch as their member of Congress voted for a nearly $1 trillion stimulus package that has done nothing to keep unemployment from reaching double-digit levels. The fact of the matter is that Jason Altmire has voted with Nancy Pelosi nearly 90% of the time, and that is simply unacceptable.

“The people of the 4th Congressional District need to understand that a vote for Jason Altmire on Election Day is a vote for Nancy Pelosi for Speaker. If we want to Fire Pelosi, and that is a message I am hearing loud and clear from voters around the Commonwealth — we must defeat Jason Altmire!”

According to The Washington Post vote database, Rep. Jason Altmire has voted with her party nearly 90% of the time.
