Casey Statement on the State of the Union

WASHINGTON, DC— Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) released the following statement after President Obama’s State of the Union Address:
“Domestically, the country faces many challenges to put people back to work, invest in our workers and foster long-term economic prosperity.  We face continued foreign and domestic threats and our fighting men and women are still serving in harm’s way.
 
“President Obama’s charge to the Congress and to the country offered a roadmap to promote American prosperity and security.
 
“The challenge we face together is to make America more competitive, prepare workers for the 21st Century and rebuild our economy for the future.  Investments in our children, workers and infrastructure are vital for our future.  These investments, however, must be combined with a renewed focus on fiscal responsibility and a more efficient government.
 
“Senator Toomey and I don’t agree on everything, but we do agree on the importance of working together for Pennsylvania and for the country.  I hope the spirit of bipartisanship shown in the discussions on seating arrangements extends past tonight and translates into work by the entire Congress on our shared challenges and responsibilities.”
