Blue Collar Caucus Statement on PA-18 Special Election Results
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressmen Marc Veasey (TX-33) and Brendan F. Boyle (PA-13), co-chairs of the Blue Collar Caucus, released the following statement after Democrat Conor Lamb connected with blue collar workers in a special election for Pennsylvania's 18th Congressional District:
"Last night's results are a true testament to what Democrats can achieve when we re-connect with, listen to, and stand by blue collar and union workers. President Trump's long list of broken promises is starting to catch up with him and Conor Lamb showed that demonstrating a commitment to the labor movement's goals of achieving better lives for the working class is not just the right thing to do, but the key to victory."
