Democratic Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, an Air Force veteran, recently condemned Republican criticisms of vice presidential candidate Tim Walz's military record as 'abhorrent.' Houlahan expressed her disapproval of the GOP's actions, stating that they appeared to be 'running scared' and unsure of their next steps.
Representing the suburbs of Philadelphia in Chester County, Houlahan highlighted the political landscape of her district, which consists of a fairly even split between Democrats, Republicans, and Independents. Despite this challenging environment, she emphasized her success in winning races as a Democrat.
Houlahan emphasized the importance of maintaining civility and joyfulness in politics, values she has embodied on the campaign trail and that were also promoted at the Democratic National Convention. She urged vigilance, cautioning against complacency and emphasizing the need to engage with constituents.
