REMINDER: Rob Bresnahan is One of the Most Vulnerable Republicans in Congress

Bresnahan has been a prolific stock trader despite campaigning on a pledge to ban congressional trading, and he cast the deciding vote to gut Medicaid

As Rob Bresnahan continues to lie to his own constituents, votes to rip away their health insurance and food assistance, and lines his own pockets while raising costs for Pennsylvanians, it’s never been more certain that he is one of the most vulnerable Republicans in Congress.

Here’s what voters know about Bresnahan after his first few months in office:

  • Bresnahan has been a prolific stock trader since coming to Congress, despite pledging on the campaign trail that he would ban congressional trading if elected. 
  • After Bresnahan was caught breaking his stock trading pledge to NEPA voters, he promised to put his assets in a blind trust – but he has not set up that trust and continues to trade freely, racking up more than 500 trades in just his first few months in office.
  • Bresnahan has faced several protests from his own constituents after he lied to voters again when he said he would not cut Medicaid, only to turn around and cast the deciding vote for Republicans’ Tax Scam that would make the largest cuts to Medicaid in history. Bresnahan’s Tax Scam also rips food assistance away from families, all to give tax cuts to billionaires.

Nonpartisan race raters agree that Bresnahan is one of the most vulnerable Republicans in Congress. 

DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“Corrupt politician Rob Bresnahan has spent his first months in Congress enriching himself in the stock market while casting the deciding vote to kick thousands of his constituents off of their health insurance. His endless lies are exactly why Democrats will flip this seat next November and make Bresnahan nothing more than a day-trader.”
