Gary Wegman is the Democratic candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in Pennsylvania's 9th congressional district. Wegman is a dentist of 36 years and a small business owner. He is a former board member of the Reading Redevelopment Authority, where he helped redevelop crumbling neighborhoods.
Wegman’s platform is progressive. Wegman advocates for a nationwide single payer health care system and a cap on prescription drug costs. Wegman wants to raise the federal minimum wage to at least $12 and tie it to the cost of living. He supports expanding immigration opportunities and providing a path to citizenship for undocumented workers already contributing to the U.S. economy.
Wegman is challenging Republican incumbent candidate Dan Meuser, who has served one term. Meuser’s record demonstrates contempt for the health and safety of his constituents. He voted against regulation of the pharmaceutical industry. Meuser also voted against raising the minimum wage. Meuser also voted against the environmental regulations and protections already agreed to under the Paris Climate Agreement. In 2020, Meuser voted against the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, as well. In the middle of a pandemic, Dan Meuser joined Republicans in their near unanimous vote against full extended unemployment insurance, stimulus checks, support for health care systems, protective gear and testing for frontline workers, mail-in election funding, funding for state budget shortages to prevent layoffs, and new small business loans.
Gary Wegman is the clear progressive choice in this race.Gary Wegman
