OUTRAGE: PA legislator covers up COVID-19 diagnosis

/
2 mins read

After attending in-person sessions and committee hearings, Republican Pennsylvania State Rep. Andrew Lewis (PA-HD105) tested positive for COVID-19.

Lewis kept it a secret from Democrats for an ENTIRE WEEK as Republican members self-quarantined, putting hundreds of legislators, staff, and families in grave danger.

PUNISH PA House Republicans for putting our lives at risk.

Donate to Brittney Rodas, Andrew Lewis’s opponent, and 8 other Democrats running against Republicans that voted to kill stay-at-home orders in the middle of a pandemic.

State Rep. Lewis’s COVID-19 coverup is just one example of how completely unhinged PA House Republicans have been during a pandemic that has killed over 100,000 Americans.

  • State Rep. Russ Diamond, who self-quarantined after exposure to Lewis, didn’t inform Democratic colleagues, and bragged about grocery shopping without a mask.
  • State Rep. Cris Dush compared Gov. Tom Wolf’s COVID-19 response to Nazi Germany.
  • State Rep. Stephanie Borowicz introduced a resolution saying COVID-19 “may be but a punishment inflicted upon us for our presumptuous sins.”
  • State Rep. Mike Jones held an in-person gathering for 150 maskless people.
  • State Rep. Daryl Metcalfe insisted “all jobs are life-sustaining” and urged counties to defy stay-at-home orders.

Turn PA Blue volunteers have written tens of thousands of postcards, made tens of thousands of calls, and raised over $25,000 for Democratic candidates running to FLIP the PA House. Can you take action today
