U.S. House of Representatives[edit]
2016 election[edit]
After his elder brother Mike Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania's 8th congressional district chose to retire in 2016, Fitzpatrick ran for the seat and won by 9 percentage points.[3] The former died on January 6, 2020 at the age of 56 after battling melanoma.[4]
115th U.S. Congress[edit]
Along with then-representative Dave Trott of Michigan, Rep. Fitzpatrick introduced a gun control bill targeting bump stocks.[5]
2018 election[edit]
Rep. Fitzpatrick narrowly won re-election in 2018 with 51% of the votes casted.[6] During the debate for the general election held in a synagogue between him and Democrat opponent Scott Wallace, the latter used the f-word in the sacred space.[7] Wallace is also a limousine liberal-style millionaire who once belonged to a racist, anti-Semitic club in South Africa,[8] who denounced money in politics despite having sought an ambassadorship by Obama after donating thousands to the latter's campaign,[9] and who was once caught saying that "dogs are smarter than police officers".[10]
116th U.S. Congress[edit]
Fitzpatrick is a staunch proponent of gun control who, along with seven other House Republicans, voted for a "bipartisan" bill to prohibit private gun sales.[11]
In July 2019, Fitzpatrick, along with House Republicans Susan Brooks of Indiana, Fred Upton of Michigan, and Will Hurd of Texas, joined all Democrats in supporting a time-wasting resolution condemning Donald Trump over "racist" tweets.[12]
Rep. Fitzpatrick joined all House Democrats in voting in favor of H.R.3, a bill aimed at lowering drug prices that lacks a practical means of achieving such.[13]
Although anti-Trump, Fitzpatrick opposed and voted against the sham articles of impeachment brought against the president.[14]
Fitzpatrick joined a bipartisan effort in early May 2020 amidst the CCP pandemic to help local chambers of commerce access financial relief via the Paycheck Protection Program.[15]
On September 17, 2020, Rep. Fitzpatrick joined 13 House RINOs/moderate Republicans in voting to condemn the use of the term "Chinese virus" as "racist".[16]
2020 election[edit]
Rep. Fitzpatrick ran re-election to a third term in 2020. Having faced a much more conservative primary challenger, he only won by a margin of 20%, having garnered just 60% of the votes casted.[17] He ran against Democrat Christina Finello in the general election in a strongly contested race; his seat being heavily targeted by the Democrat establishment.[18][19]
Fitzpatrick's bid is endorsed by gun control groups following his anti-2nd amendment record.[20][21] He has been following through on that effort since his election.[22]
He was one of thirty-five Republicans to vote for the Partisan Hack resolution calling for an Investigation on Capital Hill.[23][24]
Fitzpatrick supported both the Farm and Dreamer Amnesty Bills.[25][26]
