Chuck Schumer is clinging to a razor-thin majority in the Senate.

Now, he’s in the fight of his life to keep it.

And Chuck Schumer slammed the panic button over Democrats’ massive problem in this battleground state.

Kamala Harris’ left-wing record causing headaches for Democrats

Vice President Kamala Harris spent part of a term in the Senate accumulating what nonpartisan GovTrack called the most left-wing voting record in 2019 despite being in office at the same time as Senator Bernie Sanders (Socialist-VT).

She came out in favor of abolishing the Senate filibuster to pass the Green New Deal and banning fracking while she was running for President in the 2020 Democrat Primary.

Now, she’s trying to distance herself from her lengthy record as a woke, left-wing radical, but her comments are coming back to haunt vulnerable Democrats running in battleground states.

Pennsylvania is, once again, one of the most important battleground states in the Presidential election, and it also has a barnburner of a Senate race.

Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) is trying to hold off Republican challenger Dave McCormick.

Harris’ call to ban fracking is becoming a problem for Democrats in a state that’s seen a natural gas boom specifically because of fracking.

McCormick visited Bull Run Energy, which runs a natural gas plant in Warren, Pennsylvania, to draw a contrast between his pro-American energy policies and Harris’ support for the Green New Deal.

And he’s tying Casey to Harris after he enthusiastically endorsed her when she replaced President Joe Biden on the Democrat ticket.

Harris and Casey hammered for advancing Democrats’ war on American energy

McCormick is running an ad in which Casey claims that voters will be impressed by Harris once they get to know her.

It features clips of Harris in her own words laying out her woke extremist positions.

“There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking,” Harris admitted during a 2019 CNN town hall.

The Harris campaign issued a statement saying that she no longer believes that, but she has a long track record of supporting its ban.

McCormick said that statement from her campaign was a head fake from the Biden-Harris regime’s war on American energy production.

“In this crazy effort to eliminate fossil fuel consumption in our country with all the EPA regulations, the ban on fracking, the LNG [liquefied natural gas] pause, and killing the Keystone pipeline, the Biden administration has put hundreds of billions of dollars of subsidies to transition to EVs and to solar panels,” McCormick said.

He noted that green energy is putting control of America’s energy in the hands of Communist China.

“The majority of those solar panels and lithium batteries come from China, so in this crazy strategy of the radical environmental left, we’ve made ourselves more dependent on our greatest adversary,” McCormick explained. “That’s the folly of the Biden administration’s energy policy: bad for security, bad for our economy, and bad for the environment. We need pro-energy policies that open up the opportunity here in Pennsylvania.”

Vulnerable Senate Democrats are going to be tied to the woke extremist positions supported by Kamala Harris.
