Dr. Mehmet Oz and John Fetterman squared off in Pennsylvania’s first and only debate for the U.S. Senate on Tuesday night. Following the discussion, the Oz campaign declared victory and said that their Republican candidate would “better represent all Pennsylvanians.”
Dr. Oz, a well-known physician, would “discover common-sense solutions to cut costs for families,” according to a statement made by the Oz campaign shortly after the debate.
The campaign also claimed that Democratic lieutenant governor Fetterman would “place criminals over Pennsylvania families” due to his “radical and dangerous views.”
The two candidates responded to inquiries throughout the discussion regarding crime, fracking, and abortion.
Regarding abortion, Oz suggested a discussion between “a lady, her doctor, [and] local political leaders,” while Fetterman stated Congress should legalize the procedure.
Oz argued that the federal government shouldn’t get involved in the abortion decisions made by the states. “As a doctor, I’ve been present when very challenging conversations have taken place. I absolutely do not want the federal government to get involved in it. I want the greatest ideas to be presented so that states can make their own decisions. I want women, doctors, and local political leaders to do this.”
The Republican added that he would be in favor of drilling.
