Democrat Chaka Fattah has served Philadelphia well over the past 14 years. His opponent, Republican Adam Lang, simply doesn't match up to his legislative experience. We believe Fattah deserves another term.
While we disapproved of his politically-selfish move to run for Mayor while still serving as our Congressman, Fattah has taken a leading role on education initiatives for lower-income students and for health care reform. And because Fattah is a member of the House Appropriations Committee, Philadelphia has a powerful voice in Congress. The 2nd Congressional District would benefit from two more years of his service.
