McCormick Slams Casey’s Refusal to Denounce Harris Fracking Ban, Stand Up for PA Energy Workers
HARRISBURG, PA. — Dave McCormick, a combat veteran and Pennsylvania job creator who served in the highest levels of government, today slammed Bob Casey for refusing to denounce Kamala Harris’ fracking ban and stand up for the Pennsylvania energy workers who will be hurt by their radical anti-fossil fuel agenda.
“Make no mistake: radical California liberal Kamala Harris wants to ban fracking, and Bob Casey thinks that’s just fine. Casey’s too weak to stand up for the 600,000 workers connected to Pennsylvania’s energy sector, and he’s too weak to fight to unleash our commonwealth’s natural resources. Anyone who is okay with banning the lifeblood of Pennsylvania’s future has no business representing the commonwealth in the U.S. Senate,” said Dave McCormick.
When asked today by reporters about Kamala Harris’ fracking ban, all Casey could muster was a comment about how Harris has “contributed greatly to our development of new energy sources.”

It’s not just fracking. Harris also wants to abolish the filibuster to pass the socialist, job-killing Green New Deal, “transition” PA energy workers out of their jobs, and eliminate private health insurance.
Bob Casey has opposed Pennsylvania energy every step of the way. In addition to supporting a ban on fracking, Casey:
- Cheers the war on fossil fuels and associates himself with radical environmental groups.
- Embraced Kamala-Biden green energy mandates, which are making America more dependent on China.
- Voted against the Keystone XL pipeline and supported a natural gas tax.
- Pushed a cap-and-trade policy that would cost PA billions of dollars and 500,000 jobs.
- Backed the Clean Power Plan, which would have raised electricity rates in Pennsylvania by almost 50 percent.
- Has taken no concrete actions to stop the Kamala-Biden LNG export ban.
