John, I’m Bob Brooks. I’m a firefighter, a dad, and someone who has spent his life working hard for myself, my family, and my community.

Today, I’m announcing my campaign to defeat Republican Ryan Mackenzie in PA-07. Last year, he won this race by just one percentage point. Next year, we have the chance to defeat him.

I want to tell you a bit more about who I am and why I’m running for Congress, but if you’re already with me in the fight to flip this competitive seat, then I’m humbly asking you to split a donation between Blue Vision and me → [link removed]

I faced a lot of obstacles at home as a kid. My childhood was a mix of challenges and hard work. My mom was a bartender and my dad was a mason. But in the early years, he served time in prison, so my mom raised me mostly on her own until she remarried.

I was a kid who loved sports — football, baseball (I played every position except pitcher and catcher), basketball, wrestling.

I went to college mostly because I wanted to play baseball. But an injury ended my career, and I dropped out soon after.

That’s why, from a young age, I worked plenty of different jobs. Paperboy, fry cook, dishwasher, bartender, pizza delivery driver — you name it, I did it. I know what it’s like to clock in early, work hard, and still wonder if you’re getting ahead.

But in 2005, I found my passion: I became a firefighter with the city of Bethlehem.

I threw myself into that job. I did every job the Fire Department had — I started out driving Truck 2, drove under three different chiefs, moved on to drive Ladder 2, and sometimes served as a hoseman. From the start, I was deeply involved in the firefighters’ union, serving as secretary, vice president, and president.

I spent 20 years there because fighting fires was more than just a job for me — it was about serving my community and standing up for the people who keep us safe.

I’ve worked hard. I’ve struggled. And I’ve lived through the hardships that too many of my fellow Pennsylvanians know — but that politicians never will.

That’s exactly why I’m running for Congress.

Republicans in Congress like Ryan Mackenzie are spending their time prioritizing Donald Trump and the wealthy billionaires who back their campaigns.

While families in PA-07 struggle with rising costs and making ends meet, Mackenzie is busy supporting policies that slash Medicaid and SNAP to pay for tax cuts to the rich and powerful.

We deserve better. We deserve someone who understands what working class families and small business owners are going through. We need someone who knows what it means to work hard and still wonder if you’re going to get by.

I’m that person, John. I’m running so that I can fight for you, the people.

So if you believe we need real representation in Congress that puts the people of PA-07 first, I’m asking for your support. Please, make a split donation between Blue Vision and me today → [link removed]
