With only two weeks until election day, here are three reasons that the Wilkes-Barre Scranton area of Pennsylvania should re-elect President Donald Trump and repudiate the Biden agenda.
Biden’s Dangerous Immigration Policies Make Our Neighborhoods Less Safe
Over the summer, it was reported by The Citizens Voice that astonishingly more than 700 illegal immigrants were caught since 2014 in northeastern Pennsylvania. The majority of the arrests were made in Pike County while the others occurred in Luzerne, Lackawanna, Monroe, and Susquehanna. As we approach Election Day, northeast Pennsylvania voters should be concerned that Joe Biden has pledged to give 11 million illegal immigrants citizenship in addition to halting deportations for at least his first 100 days in office if he were to be elected president.
Joe Biden, an empty vessel of the radical left, doubled down on his severely weak approach to illegal immigration by selecting Kamala Harris as his running mate. Harris, rated the most liberal senator by GovTrack, openly advocates for completely decriminalizing border crossings. As President Trump aptly points out consistently, border security is national security. In order to keep holding illegal immigrants accountable for their crimes voters must reject the open border policies of Biden and Harris.
Biden is anti-Energy and conflicted on fracking?
The preponderance of evidence and public statements from Joe Biden point to an all-out assault on the US energy industry and particularly on fracking. But, during Biden’s last trip to Pennsylvania, he contradicted his own earlier statements to claim that he is not actually for serious restrictions on fracking. It is time for Biden to be crystal clear with the people of Pennsylvania, where fracking comprises a crucial economic pillar for so many citizens, especially in places like Washington, Bradford, and Westmoreland counties.
In February of this year, Biden pledged to “phase out” fracking. Similarly, in a Democratic primary debate last year, Biden agreed that there would be “no place” for fracking in a Biden administration. He also awkwardly asked a supporter to “look into my eyes” and said “I guarantee you we're going to end fossil fuels."
Biden’s record reflects many more similar threats against energy broadly -- and fracking specifically. The receipts of Joe Biden’s taped statements reveal a decidedly anti-energy career politician, one who threatens a key pillar of Pennsylvania’s prosperity, as well as jeopardize our nation’s national security. So, can Joe Biden kindly settle this public argument with himself, and report back to us which side won? Is Biden anti-fracking, and siding with his radical leftist allies like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Bernie Sanders, and his running mate Kamala Harris who said “there’s no question I am in favor of banning fracking”? Or, does Biden dare to alienate his extremist supporters and actually support the energy industry of Pennsylvania? Time to come clean, Joe.
Joe Biden would strip PA citizens of their gun rights
Pennsylvanians rightly revere the Bill of Rights as the home state to the Constitutional Convention. Pennsylvania citizens particularly exercise their fundamental, God-given right to bear arms. In fact, the Keystone State has the second most hunting licenses of any state in America, just behind Texas in total hunting licenses, even though Texas has more than twice as many people.
Shockingly, Joe Biden has been consistent throughout the campaign in his intent to gut the Second Amendment. When CNN’s Anderson Cooper asked Biden if he would come for the weapons of legal gun owners, his response was “Bingo, you’re right.” Biden has been clear that he will ban so-called “assault weapons” (a meaningless and redundant catchphrase), including the AR-15, the most popular rifle in America. In fact, he promised to make Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke the effective “gun czar” in a Biden administration. O’Rourke’s anti-gun stances place him at the far left of even the Democrat Party on the issue, as he openly threatens actual government confiscation of presently-legal firearms. Liberty-loving Pennsylvanians will not accept this anti-gun, anti-Bill of Rights agenda of Biden/Harris.
