General Discussion

"Being a U.S. senator also requires a lot of travel — mainly across their home state to hear from their constituents. The late Sen. Arlen Specter routinely crisscrossed Pennsylvania, visiting all 67 counties every two years and holding 400 town hall meetings. That’s what public service looks like."

"Fetterman has not had much time for Washington or Pennsylvania. But he found time to jet down to Mar-a-Lago to schmooze with Trump, who he said 'was kind,' 'fascinating,' and 'a commonsense person.'"

"Fetterman has flown to Israel twice in the past year, including a recent all-expense-paid junket to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been accused of war crimes and corruption. He and his wife flew first class and stayed in five-star hotels as part of a fact-finding mission that cost $36,000 and was paid for by a New York-based nonprofit."

"Fetterman finds time to regularly appear on Fox News and other TV talk shows, while also seeming preoccupied with his social media profile."

“'He’s taken two all-expenses-paid trips to Israel, but can’t drive down the street and hold a town hall,' a former staffer told the Intercept."

"Other senators travel overseas but also show up for work in Washington and meet with constituents in their home state. Public service is not about serving yourself."

"It’s time for Fetterman to serve Pennsylvanians, or step away."
