Congressman Boyle Lauds Election Results, Vows to Fight For The People in New House Majority

November 7, 2018

WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Brendan F. Boyle (PA-13) released the following statement on the midterm election where Democrats have secured the majority for the 116th Congress:

"I am thrilled that Democrats earned the public's trust to set the House's agenda next Congress; to exercise the legislative branch's constitutional duties of checks and balances, and to further a platform of policies that work for all Americans, not just those at the top.

"We're going to protect people with pre-existing conditions and control health care costs, so your income won't determine whether you get the care you need. We're going to create jobs and raise wages by rebuilding America's crumbling infrastructure. And, we're going to clean up the culture of corruption that has plagued Washington since President Trump took office and Congressional Republicans willfully turned a blind eye.

"I am very proud of the level of voter engagement we saw in this election. The American people have unequivocally put their trust in House Democrats at this critical moment for our democracy. We will not let them down."
