Washington, D.C. – In response to the first TV debate in the Pennsylvania Senate race, LCV National Press Secretary Seth Stein issued the following statement:

“Katie McGinty is right; Pat Toomey is deep in the pocket of Big Polluters. He’s been one of their best allies in Washington, fighting for the billions they receive in taxpayer handouts and opposing critical investments in clean energy, ensuring his oil industry friends can continue fueling climate change and polluting our air. No matter how he tries to spin it, his dirty and dangerous policies will stifle Pennsylvania’s economy and threaten the health of our families, just to protect the profits of the fossil fuel industry.”
