Pennsylvania Republicans should move on from Doug Mastriano
Doug Mastriano, speaks at an event on July 1, 2022, at the state Capitol in Harrisburg, Pa. Mastriano, Pennsylvania's Republican nominee for governor, is suing the congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, contesting its legal ability to force him to answer questions about it. The lawsuit filed by Mastriano on Sept. 1, contends that the committee lacks House Republican appointees, and doesn't comply with House rules for conducting a compelled deposition of witnesses.

Former Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate and state Sen. Doug Mastriano is expected to announce his decision Thursday night whether he will be running for U.S. Senate and oppose incumbent Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) in the 2024 election. He stated earlier this week that he would do a Facebook Live event on Thursday evening. But if Republicans want to have any chance at reclaiming a seat in the Senate, voters should move on from Mastriano.
