Joe Sestak Endorsed by Philadelphia Inquirer

"JOE SESTAK, a former Navy admiral who served two terms in the House, has the best credentials and experience to immediately serve Pennsylvania and the nation. His unrelenting intellectual curiosity has helped Sestak, a notoriously hard taskmaster, form a deep understanding of government and foreign policy that Katie McGinty and John Fetterman cannot match."

"Sestak, 64, makes the most persuasive argument that he can maneuver beyond partisan politics to help the middle class rebound from years of stagnant wages. Like his opponents, he wants to close tax loopholes that encourage companies to send jobs overseas, but his plans are more detailed. He also wants to fine-tune the Affordable Care Act to lessen its impact on small businesses."

"With trade agreements taking up so much of the conversation among candidates for the presidency on down, Sestak refuses to get caught up in hyperbole and offers a more nuanced approach to correcting trade imbalances. He believes American jobs must be protected but rules out protectionist policies that could hurt alliances and cost jobs by closing foreign markets."
