A Quick Look at Bob Brady's 2011 FEC Reports
Normally I stay out of Philadelphia politics. When I was going over the quarterly FEC reports for the collar counties I dipped into the reports for Philadelphia’s congressional representatives. A few things surprised me so I’ve done a little more digging. Here are some observations on the reports from 1st district Congressman Bob Brady’s campaign, from the post-general 2010 election, year end 2010, first, second, and third quarter 2011 reports. To provide some context, I found a Dec. 20, 2010 article by Brad Bumstead and Mike Wereschagin in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, ...
Statewide Primaries Get Steamy
The big question is will we get a Democrat candidate from Eastern Pennsylvania or Western Pennsylvania in the high-stakes Attorney General race? The next two questions automatically follow. Will either Dan McCaffery or former Congressman Pat Murphy or Lackawanna’s Kathleen Kane get the nomination when the Democrat State Committee meets Jan. 14 to decide? The State’s Democrats from west of the Susquehanna always seem to be united when it comes to decisions such as this, though none of them has announced as of now. Obviously a powerful draw, Dan McCaffery showed he had the ...

Congressman Brady Joins Federal Lawsuit Challenging President Trump’s Violation of Constitution’s Anti-Corruption Clause PHILADELPHIA --- Congressman Bob Brady (D., PA) and 200 Members of Congress have filed a federal lawsuit against President Trump for violating one of the Constitution’s critical anti-corruption provisions: the Foreign Emoluments Clause. The clause prohibits the President from accepting foreign payments without seeking and receiving Congressional authorization. “The Constitution’s Emoluments Clause is a major and vital guard against the corrupting influence of foreign governments.” said Congressman Brady. “The American people should have total confidence that the President is serving in their best interest, not to make him richer. President Trump’s refusal to disclose or seek Congress’s authorization for his extensive foreign business interests is a blatant violation of the Constitution, and a danger to our democratic principles. I am committed to using use every tool available to hold this President accountable to the Constitution and to the American people.” F |
Bob Brady questions SEPTA/NTSB investigation of latest train crash PHILADELPHIA --- Congressman Bob Brady (D., PA) says SEPTA should shut down the Norristown High Speed Line (NHSL) while the investigation of the train crash continues. After visiting the 69th Street Transportation Center this morning for a firsthand look at the accident site, Brady said SEPTA should utilize shuttle buses until they determine what caused the Tuesday crash in Upper Darby. “We have no indication what caused this crash and until that can be decided SEPTA needs to err on the side of caution and in the best interests of the riding public.” Brady added, “I’m frustrated because rather than hearing what the problem is all I hear is that this investigation is continuing as well as the investigation of the crash six months ago.” In addition, Brady said he has talked to Upper Darby Mayor Thomas Micozzie who has also expressed his concerns regarding rail safety at the transportation center. In closing, Brady said in spite of his continuing concerns for safet |
Congressman Brady condemns President Trump's decision to end DACA Philadelphia --- Congressman Bob Brady (D., PA) released the following statement in response to President Trump's decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program: "The revocation of DACA by our president is just one more indication that all of us who believe in America's highest ideals must push back with all the power we have to pass the DREAM Act. The DREAMers should not be abandoned and thrown back because of the petty and short sighted whims of our president." |
Brady wants expedited investigation of SEPTA crash PHILADELPHIA --- Congressman Bob Brady (D., PA) is calling for an expedited investigation of yesterday’s early morning crash of the Norristown High Speed Line in the Upper Darby 69th Street Transportation Center. Brady says he has expressed his concern in a letter to Robert Sumwalt, the chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board. “We need answers now. It’s been six months since a train on SEPTA’s Market-Frankford Line derailed when it crashed into a stopped train. And, that investigation is still going on,” the Congressmen stressed. “Are we supposed to wait another six months to find out what led to this latest crash? We need answers now so the problems can be corrected and the riding public is safe.” |
