In a retirement address before the state House of Representatives in Harrisburg on Tuesday, state Rep. Daryl Metcalfe, R-12, reiterated pillars of his political and religious perspective while thanking family, friends, supporters, and staff.

Metcalfe announced his retirement in January after more than two decades in office. He has served the 12th District in southwestern Butler County since 1999.

The newly rearranged district, which now includes Adams, Cranberry and Jackson townships; and Callery, Evans City, Harmony, Mars, Seven Fields, Valencia and Zelienople boroughs, is up for grabs, and Republican Stephenie Scialabba and Democrat Robert Vigue will vie for the spot in the Nov. 8 election.
