His peers in the House Democratic Caucus recently elected him Chair, and he’s used his seat at the table to fight for Beaver County with Democrats and Republicans alike. When it comes to meeting the needs of our local communities, Rob doesn’t care about partisan politics — he cares about getting the job done.”
