I was surprised that he has chosen to run for the Senate. I don't know if it is to help or to escape Braddock.

He's done a great job in Braddock.

I had previous opportunity to speak to him during the time where my health care system (UPMC) was pulling out of Braddock. At the time, I was a councilwoman in Monroeville and Tina (who you saw near the end of this piece) was on Braddock Council.

People like John and Tina are the reasons that we will get back to sustainability. And John... He is what I call no BS. He's about as straight a shooter as you can get in government.

I hope he is able to succeed in PA's General Assembly. They are pretty toxic and controlled by so many corrupt Republicans (yeah, Democrats, too... big surprise)
