Fetterman (D., Pa.) has received two speeding tickets in his home state — the more recent one of which was in March for exceeding the speed limit in Westmoreland County by 34 mph. Before this year, he was ticketed in April 2016 for going at least 24 mph above the speed limit in Warren County, according to state public records.

The senator’s aides have said Fetterman has texted and FaceTimed while driving, ”prompting concerns among his staff and fears about riding with him,” the Post reported, citing three people with knowledge of staff discussions who spoke about internal conversations on the condition of anonymity.

He comes off as a Neoliberal. Everything for the big companies and institutions, but without the racism and discrimination against individuals that comes with conservatism.

They also want a bit of regulation opposed to the regular liberals. (I mean the definition of liberal, not what American politics has made of that word)
