Saying, “It’s the only way to put this important decision in the hands of the people,” Ninth U.S. Congressional candidate Michael DeGrosso has publicly challenged incumbent Bill Shuster to a debate in every county of the Ninth Congressional District.
The challenge came as DelGrosso appeared live recently on Blair County’s Public Access show “Weekend Wrap Up.”
“The people of this district deserve to be able to hear first-hand both candidates debate the issues,” said DelGrosso. “While I’m glad to see that there is progress on a Blair County debate, there are 14 other counties that are equally important in this district. Therefore, I challenge Bill Shuster to debate anywhere, anytime.”
DelGrosso added that there is no excuse for only one debate.
“I fully expect the Shuster campaign to agree to more debates, especially since the House is not in session from April 5 until April 19.”
Congressman Shuster was not available for comment at presstime.
