Attorney General visits Butler on campaign trail for governor
Attorney General Josh Shapiro stopped at the Butler County Democratic Committee headquarters Wednesday afternoon on his campaign for governor.
Shapiro is running unopposed in the Democratic primary, but said he is making his way around the state to get his name out to residents and get a read on the issues Pennsylvanians find important.
In a talk attended by several county Democratic officials and about 20 other people at the West Jefferson Street office, Shapiro said he wants to be governor in part to improve the state’s economy through investments in education and medicine.
“How about we invest in an economy that lifts everybody up,” Shapiro said. “We have to be able to take advantage of the things that set us apart and make us unique, from investing more in energy, to making sure we do right by investing in eds and meds and creating more jobs that are going to help move our economy forward.”
