Jeff Bartos, small business owner and co-founder of the Pennsylvania 30 Day Fund, today announced his candidacy for the United States Senate. In a statement and announcement video, both included below, Bartos pledges to be a fighter for all Pennsylvanians and do what it takes to help keep our nation moving forward.
“During the Trump Administration, millions of Pennsylvanians who had felt abandoned and forgotten had someone fighting for them in Washington and delivering real results for their communities. We cannot afford to return to a time when working families and small businesses, which are the lifeblood of our communities, had their priorities and well-being ignored by their elected officials,” said Bartos, “Pennsylvanians deserve to have someone fighting for them – and that’s why I’m running for U.S. Senate.”
“What we’ve seen over the last year is that government continues to step in, time and again, in a way that favors the big companies at the expense of the little companies,” continued Bartos, “Who are we as a society if all that’s left at the end of this pandemic are giant companies?”
Born and raised in Berks County, Bartos has been a Pennsylvania resident his entire life. Bartos is a small business owner and real estate developer active in the Greater Philadelphia market. In addition to his private-sector career, Bartos co-founded and led an effort to raise and distribute over $3.3 million to struggling small businesses in Pennsylvania through the Pennsylvania 30 Day Fund. Bartos was the Republican nominee in 2018 for Lt. Governor after winning the Primary Election with nearly 50% of the total vote in a four-person race.
“Over the last ten months, I have been talking with small business owners from all over the commonwealth. They’ve shared with me their belief that Main Street Pennsylvania has been left behind by the very people who are supposed to be representing them,” continued Bartos, “If we’ve learned anything over the past ten months, it’s that career politicians love to talk but rarely roll up their sleeves and get to work to fix problems. Frankly, Pennsylvania is suffering because of it. I’m running to change that. Politicians talk. I’m running to get shit done.”
