Owen Brennan on the campaign trail

Owen Brennan for U.S. House of Representatives PA-12

NEPA's best days are ahead

A Marine. A welder. A father. Owen's running because the incumbent voted with Washington and the plants kept closing — and somebody from this district needs to say enough.

Where Owen stands

Four fights. No fine print.

01 / 03

Bring jobs home.

Tax credits that reward hiring here, not overseas. Tear up the trade deals that gutted NEPA. Fund welding, electrical, and pipefitting apprenticeships — not another four-year-degree lecture.

02 / 03

Secure the border.

Finish the wall. Hire more agents. End catch-and-release. Treat fentanyl trafficking as the weapon of mass destruction it is — three families on my street have buried kids to it.

03 / 03

Parents in charge.

Curriculum posted online before the school year — not after a FOIA fight. Politics out of K-8 classrooms. Build vo-tech back into our schools so a kid can graduate with a credential, not just a loan.

Meet Owen

Owen Brennan

Eight years in the Marine Corps. Two tours. Came home to South Scranton, used the GI Bill, and opened a welding shop that hires guys his buddies used to share a shift with before the plant closed. He's running because nobody in Washington is fighting for the 12th.

Get in the fight

Thirty minutes a week.
Wins this seat.

Knock ten doors. Make ten calls. Drop a sign on the lawn. One neighbor, one porch — that's how PA-12 flips. The other side has D.C. money. We have the diner, the parish hall, and you.
