congressman for PA District 01, Andy Meehan will continue to fight for our president, for our shared Republican

heres-what-he-said-about-trump-ukraine-controversy Fitzpatrick, R-1, of Middletown, was serving in the FBI in
2014 when revolution took hold in Ukraine & the country’s president fled to Russia. By 2015, the FBI had sent
Fitzpatrick, who specialized in anti-corruption, to Kiev as part of the United States’ efforts to establish good
governance in the country. “The Congressman was assigned to Ukraine on detail with the FBI’s International
Corruption Unit for several months in 2015. His main responsibilities were to help establish Ukraine’s National
Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU),” Fitzpatrick’s office confirmed in an email, adding he trained Ukrainian
investigators & prosecutors in best practices. Just a short time later, in January 2016, Fitzpatrick left the FBI &
launched his campaign for Congress. Fitzpatrick’s time in Kiev is now of renewed interest, as it coincides with
efforts to oust a Ukrainian official at the heart of the freshly launched impeachment inquiry of Trump.

Ukraine on an anti-corruption mission for the FBI in 2015, has gently chided Trump without mentioning the
president by name. Fitzpatrick called the whistleblower’s complaint “a serious allegation” that provides a road

SYSTEM" https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/gop-lawmakers-express-concerns-about-giulianis-work-in-

nominee Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election who held his seat in the 2018 midterms, criticized
Giuliani's assignment to an outside diplomatic channel. "That's a problem and it creates problems, as we're
seeing now," he told The Hill. Those problems, he said, are of U.S. policy and strategy being undermined when
outside officials flout established chains of command. "Just like the military, the diplomatic chain, there's got to be
integrity to the structure. There are rules and regulations governing to diplomatic communications. It's important
that there be a consistent strategy amongst all the players. Anytime you have a situation where there's off-
channel communications, that jeopardizes the whole system." Fitzpatrick, who was stationed in Ukraine for his
work in anti-corruption with the FBI, said it's important the U.S. speak with one voice and that Ukraine is
reassured it enjoys bipartisan support on the Hill.

impeachment-inquiry-of-trump/2019/11/06/c9a1d7ee-ff1f-11e9-8501-2a7123a38c58_story.html GOP should be
most concerned about what happened in local elections in Chester, Delaware and Bucks County, PA last night,
Josh Holmes, one of McConnell's closest advisers, tweeted. "That is genuinely alarming if you know the voting
history." All three of those counties outside Philadelphia voted for Democratic majorities on their county
commissions, the first time ever for Chester and Delaware and the first time in more than 25 years for Bucks.
Neighboring Montgomery County, which flipped to Democrats in 2011, delivered another overwhelming 2-to-1
margin of victory for incumbent Democrats. Those four suburban counties are now delivering such big
Democratic margins that it becomes tougher for Trump to win the state's 20 electoral votes - and makes the 2022
reelection bid of Sen. Patrick Toomey, R-Pa., that much harder of a climb. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., is the
only GOP lawmaker left in the Philadelphia suburbs. He and his brother have won six of the last eight races for
this seat, but Bucks County swung left in every countywide race Tuesday. Again, they were not on the ballot
Tuesday, but Pelosi's Democrats feel like their strategy was validated. "Congressman Fitzpatrick is vulnerable,
and the district is trending in Democrats' favor," Courtney Rice, spokeswoman for the Democratic Congressional
Campaign Committee, said.

the Club for Growth said in opposition to the measure. “Voter ID laws protect the integrity of the ballot box. This

https://www.buckscountycouriertimes.com/news/20190628/mullane-awaiting-deportation-man-kills-bucks-county-
grandmother-in-hit-&-run Federal immigration authorities had wanted to deport Arturo Guzman-Jimenez for years.
Then he struck & killed Sis Davis, 79, in Warrington. If you don’t believe the immigration crisis can hit Bucks
County with fatal consequences, you don’t know the names Arturo Guzman-Jimenez & Sigrid “Sis” Davis, & what
happened on a stretch of highway in Warrington on Nov. 13, 2018... There was an odd incident afterward. Police
had gathered Mrs. Davis’ personal effects from the street, but one item was missing — a small purse in which she
kept her bank debit cards. “The police said they didn’t have it. I knew that was impossible. She always had that
purse on her,” Poiron said. Then, a few months later, the purse suddenly appeared on the road near where her
mother was hit. Poiron speculates that when Guzman-Jimenez hit her mother, the impact knocked the purse into
one of the many trees nearby, & it was hung up on branches, unseen, until strong winds knocked it out, & it fell to
the street. “That gives you an idea of how hard he hit her,” she said. “The police took it as evidence. We won’t get
it back until this is over. But, you know, for me, it will never be over.”

Republicans voted to create a Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program for Venezuela’s population — allowing
nationals who are already in the U.S. to remain & incentivizing more to migrate. Officials with the Trump

9/28/2019 CONGRESSMAN BRIAN FITZPATRICK (R-PA01) VOTES WITH DEMOCRATS TO FAST-TRACK
ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORDS SYSTEM FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, WHILE VOTING AGAINST
AMERICAN VETERANS WAITING FOR THE SAME SERVICE https://www.westernjournal.com/dems-vote-
enhance-med-care-illegals-now-vote-vets-waiting-10-years-service House Democrats voted Thursday to fast-
track an electronic medical records system that would serve illegal immigrants, something America’s veterans
have been seeking for years. The House passed the bill on a largely party line vote of 230-184, American Military
News reported. Tennessee Republican Rep. Tim Burchett said in a Twitter video that Republicans added an
amendment to the Democratic bill to ensure veterans receive the same treatment as illegal immigrants under the
bill. Democrats voted down that amendment, Burchett said. Only two Republican congressmen supported the bill
— Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania & Fred Upton of Michigan.
9/30/2019 DURING SECOND TERM IN OFFICE, CONGRESSMAN BRIAN FITZPATRICK (R-PA01) FORCED TO

DEATHS SKYROCKET https://www.wfmz.com/news/southeastern-pa/bucks-county-designated-high-intensity-
drug-trafficking-area-/1127049116 Bucks County is now officially designated a High Intensity Drug Trafficking
Area. It doesn't sound like a good thing, but the classification means law enforcement will be given additional
tools to use in the fight against drugs. Fitzpatrick joined the senators in June to write a letter to the White House
Office of National Drug Control Policy encouraging the designation. In that letter to the ONDCP, the lawmakers
said the number of overdose deaths in the county rose from 17 per 100,000 in 2015, to 37 in 100,000 in 2017.

FAMILY OF SIS DAVIS. "One year later, [Sis Davis is] forgotten. But not by all. A public gathering was held
Saturday in honor of Mrs. Davis, arranged by Andy Meehan, a conservative Republican running in opposition to
incumbent Republican Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick." “It’s (illegal immigration) another burden on working
people and taxpayers,” Meehan said. “We’re expected to shut up and go to work and accept it all, and not say
anything.” “Had he been deported, my mother would be alive,” said Donna Poiron, Davis’ daughter.

"EXTREME RISK PROTECTION ORDER ACT" ALLOWING "RED FLAG" CONFISCATION OF LEGALLY

of the House Judiciary Committee’s gun violence prevention markup, moving it one step closer to a vote on the
House floor. The bipartisan legislation was introduced by Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-CA) & co-led by Rep. Don
Beyer (D-VA), Rep. Ted Deutch (D-FL) & Rep. CONGRESSMAN BRIAN FITZPATRICK (R-PA). The ERPO Act,
also known as a ‘red flag’ law, is a bill to temporarily keep guns out of the hands of those who are deemed a
threat to themselves or others. It establishes a grant program to incentivize states to adopt extreme risk laws that
would reduce gun deaths & injuries, while protecting due process rights. After the Judiciary Committee markup,
the bill also includes an amendment to create a federal extreme risk protection order program. The bill will now
move to the House floor for final passage.
11/13/2019 PHILLY INQUIRER: QUESTIONS RAISED ABOUT CONGRESSMAN BRIAN FITZPATRICK (R-PA01)
ACCEPTING CASH AND ENDORSEMENTS FROM BILLIONAIRE DEMOCRAT PRESIDENTIAL HOPEFUL
MICHAEL BLOOMBERG'S ANTI-GUN GROUPS https://www.inquirer.com/news/mike-bloomberg-2020-pat-
toomey-brian-fitzpatrick-endorse-pennsylvania-politics-20191112.html Gun-control groups backed by Bloomberg
endorsed U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey in 2016 and U.S. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick in 2018, lending weight to their pitch to
voters that they were independent voices who could collaborate across the aisle. In both races, the lawmakers
were trying to win over moderate swing voters, and each narrowly squeaked to reelection. Bloomberg's
endorsements and cash behind Pennsylvania Republicans "will present its problems," said John Cordisco,
chairman of the Democratic Party in Bucks County, where Fitzpatrick's district is based. "There's going to be a
core of Democrats that are going to need to understand what prompted him to do that, and it just doesn't remain
within the borders of Bucks County. Other groups throughout Pennsylvania are going to be asking those same
questions." Bloomberg wasn't alone in praising Toomey and Fitzpatrick, two of the rare Republicans to support
tougher gun laws. Former Democratic Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was gravely wounded in a mass shooting,
also backed both men, along with endorsing a number of Democrats.

9/26/2019 CONGRESSMAN BRIAN FITZPATRICK (R-PA01) PUSHES NEW LEGISLATION FORCING CARBON TAXES
ON EVERY AMERICAN FAMILY & BUSINESS Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania will introduce a
carbon tax bill Thursday. Fitzpatrick’s office confirmed the congressman’s plan for the bill. Fitzpatrick, a former
FBI agent, is a leader of the bipartisan Climate Solutions Caucus. He was one of three Republicans who
approved legislation that passed the Democratically controlled House in May barring Trump from taking the U.S.
out of the Paris climate change agreement. Fitzpatrick, who represents a purple district in the middle-class
suburbs... of Pennsylvania, is one of two Republicans in Congress publicly supporting a carbon tax. This means
paying more for lighting, air-conditioning & heat… & of course, coal plants (& mines & their jobs) would soon
disappear as natural gas produces much less CO2. Which would naturally mean less revenue which means
someone is going to pound his fist & say we need to bring back the gasoline tax. The claim that most of carbon
tax money will be used to rebuild infrastructure also deserves a big LOL as that is what the gasoline & diesel tax
is supposed to do now & obviously doesn’t.

most concerned about what happened in local elections in Chester, Delaware and Bucks County, PA last night,
Josh Holmes, one of McConnell's closest advisers, tweeted. "That is genuinely alarming if you know the voting
history." All three of those counties outside Philadelphia voted for Democratic majorities on their county
commissions, the first time ever for Chester and Delaware and the first time in more than 25 years for Bucks.
Neighboring Montgomery County, which flipped to Democrats in 2011, delivered another overwhelming 2-to-1
margin of victory for incumbent Democrats. Those four suburban counties are now delivering such big
Democratic margins that it becomes tougher for Trump to win the state's 20 electoral votes - and makes the 2022
reelection bid of Sen. Patrick Toomey, R-Pa., that much harder of a climb. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., is the
only GOP lawmaker left in the Philadelphia suburbs. He and his brother have won six of the last eight races for
this seat, but Bucks County swung left in every countywide race Tuesday. Again, they were not on the ballot
Tuesday, but Pelosi's Democrats feel like their strategy was validated. "Congressman Fitzpatrick is vulnerable,
and the district is trending in Democrats' favor," Courtney Rice, spokeswoman for the Democratic Congressional
Campaign Committee, said.

1/3/2020 REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE ANDY MEEHAN RESPONDS TO CONGRESSMAN BRIAN FITZPATRICK (R-PA01)
ATTACK AD “THANKS, BUDDY!” “On Thursday, January 2, 2020, Brian Fitzpatrick for Congress launched an
attack ad against me to criticize me for, among other things, my enjoyment of hiking and fishing. Clearly, these
are the substantive matters that Republicans in PA District 01 deeply care about. And while my campaign is
working hard to raise money here in PA-01, I’m grateful to Congressman Fitzpatrick for spending some of the
million dollars he’s raised from DC special interests to produce this ad and boost my name recognition.
“However, there are some errors in this ad that I must correct.
1) Brian Fitzpatrick, not Andy Meehan, is Nancy Pelosi’s favorite Republican. According to the liberal group
Americans for Democratic Action, Fitzpatrick votes with Nancy Pelosi more than any other Republican in
Congress. https://adaction.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/2018.pdf
2) Brian Fitzpatrick accuses me of “attacking Republicans” when he has voted to condemn our Republican
President Donald Trump again and again. Fitzpatrick refused to vote for Donald Trump in 2016. Fitzpatrick
refused to commit to supporting Donald Trump in 2020 in a recent NBC news interview. Perhaps worst of all,
Brian Fitzpatrick voted with Nancy Pelosi, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to label
President Trump a “racist” in July 2019. http://levittownnow.com/2019/07/16/congressman-fitzpatrick-votes-to-
condemn-presidents-controversial-tweets
3) Brian Fitzpatrick accuses me of hurting the PA-01 Republican Party in 2019. But on Election Day, Andy
Meehan was working the polls all day on behalf of Republican candidates right here in Bucks County while Brian
Fitzpatrick was posing for photo ops at unrelated events. Under the “leadership” of Brian Fitzpatrick, the
Republican Party in Bucks County and PA-01 has suffered the worst election losses in 30 years, while Brian
Fitzpatrick has remained silent. https://www.buckscountycouriertimes.com/news/20191105/democrats-takes-
control-of-bucks-county-government
“Brian Fitzpatrick is scared of my grassroots, conservative campaign because I’m speaking the truth about his
support for taking away gun rights, for open borders and amnesty, for letting biological men invade women-only
spaces and sports, and for raising taxes. He accuses me of being a disloyal Republican, but the only reason I’m
in this race is because of Brian Fitzpatrick’s disloyalty to Republican values, voters, and our President. Fitzpatrick
launched this attack on the same day he refused an invitation from the Lower Makefield/Yardley Republican
Committee because I was also invited.
“Brian: It’s time to stop hiding behind your campaign staff and attack ads and have a real debate.”
