How does my opponent, US Representative John Joyce, support I.C.E.? Joyce votes to fund I.C.E. with our tax dollars. See ALT for more.
However, I will work to ABOLISH I.C.E. and create clear paths to citizenship so that we can "welcome the stranger" instead of persecute them. ChooseDemocracy
Comparison of candidates' position (Beth Farnham and John Joyce) on ICE. Rest of post: He voted TWICE for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that "...provides $170.7 BILLION in additional funding for immigration- and border enforcement-related activities to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and its sub-agencies, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) as well as for the Department of Defense (DOD) for activities related to the military’s presence along parts of the southern border. H.R. 1 implicitly drives dramatic changes to immigration policy through the spending of federal tax dollars. Because these funds are provided through reconciliation—and not the regular appropriations process—they do not include directives about how the funds must be used, which prevents members of Congress from conducting meaningful oversight. Importantly, these funds all need to be spent by September 30, 2029 but the agencies receiving them have significant discretion as to how to allocate them across the next 51 months." Additionally, he recently voted on Thursday, "with nearly all Republicans to approve a bill funding the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Thursday, as anger grows over the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement tactics. The $64.4 billion bill, which includes roughly $10 billion for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), passed the House by a vote of 220-207." I, Beth Farnham, however, will work to ABOLISH I.C.E. and create clear paths to citizenship so that we can "welcome the stranger" instead of persecute them. If you want I.C.E. to be defunded and/or abolished due to its egregious violations of our human and Constitutional rights, you must vote John Joyce OUT OF OFFICE. And spreading the word of my campaign is a big way to help, so PLEASE SHARE! Together, we #ChooseDemocracy! #AbolishICE

I was proud to stand against I.C.E. with fellow citizens in Juniata and Mifflin counties today.
May no one else be brutalized by Trump's masked agents.

Unlike our cowardly US Representative, multimillionaire John Joyce, I actually support affordable and accessible healthcare because I believe in UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE.
I also actually support the SECOND AMENDMENT. See
tinyurl.com/mry6ddyw for video and ALT for additional text. We #ChooseDemocracy
Woman (Bath Farnham) in front of the U.S. Capitol. also actually support the SECOND AMENDMENT because an American in legal possession of a firearm shouldn't be disarmed, then executed by 10 shots to the head, then labeled as a "domestic terrorist" by violent agents of the state. Our right to bear arms is precious and should always be aligned with responsible gun ownership. Please vote for me, Beth Farnham, for the office of US Representative so I can truly fight for our rights.

Despite threat of bad weather, concerned citizens attended to learn of the devastating effects on cost of living for Everyday Americans in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act & solutions to the problem. More in ALT.

Rest of post: As elected Representative, I pledge to hold in-person Town Halls to give constituents a chance to use their voice, unlike Rep. John Joyce, who has NEVER held an in-person Town Hall for PA-13. Let's vote me into office on November 3, 2026 so we can make changes that improve our lives. Don't forget to sign up for my Blair County Town Hall on Healthcare, Affordability, and I.C.E. on Saturday, February 7th, 2026, 2 PM - 4 PM. Together, we #ChooseDemocracy!

Today, in remembrance of the victims of the Holocaust, we pause and pray that our fellow man never perpetrates such atrocities and apathy again.
Post from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in ALT.
Concentration Camp prisoners in front of a barbed wire fence. United Staes Holocaust Memorial Museum Facebook Post 81 years ago, Auschwitz was liberated by Soviet troops. The Germans established the Auschwitz camp complex in the spring of 1940 in German-occupied Poland. In just over four years, about 1.1 million people were killed there—including about one million Jews. Each year on the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, we remember the victims of the Holocaust and carry forward the messages of its survivors.

RIP Alex Pretti
Legal possession of a firearm is not a tacit permission for an administration to murder its constituents. Especially when that American has been DISARMED. See: bsky.app/.../radleyba...
Senators must vote against the resolution to fund DHS. See ALT for more.
#ChooseDemocracy
Text with some words crossed out: abolish instead of reform, homicidal instead of unaccountable, murder instead of perpetrate brutality. Senators must vote against the resolution to fund DHS until ICE is abolished. How many more people exercising their Constitutional rights will be brutally killed in broad daylight by out of control government officials who have no accountability?

We, The People, deserve real representation which means:
- honoring our oaths to the US Constitution
- honoring relationships with our trusted allies
- honoring the sacrifices The Greatest Generation made in order to maintain 80-years peace & economic stability. See ALT for Pres. Eisenhower's views.
Picture of man with blue patterned tie (President Dwight D. Eisenhower). Rest of message: One of our greatest presidents of the United States, Dwight Eisenhower (who retired to Gettysburg in PA-13) recognized the need for trade with our allies post WWII. "Reciprocal trade agreements negotiated since the advent of the Trade Agreements Act have helped bring a more vigorous, dynamic growth to our American economy. Our own economic self-interest, therefore, demands a continuation of the trade agreements program. Under this program sound two-way trade can be further developed to assure to our industries widening opportunities for participation in world markets, and to provide foreign nations the opportunity to earn the dollars to pay for the goods we sell. We can either receive the benefits of the reciprocal lowering of trade barriers or suffer the inevitable alternative of increasingly high barriers against our own commerce which would weaken our economy and jeopardize American jobs." Special Message to the Congress on the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Program: The American Presidency Project https://tinyurl.com/tkbwh36e At a time when healthcare premiums and grocery prices are skyrocketing, the last thing we need is a trade war with European nations. As our US Representative in Congress, I will absolutely restrain any rogue president from slapping our allied countries with unjustified tariffs because he or she cannot buy land that is not for sale. Please vote for me in November so that we can strengthen our economy and our ties with our allies. Together, we #ChooseDemocracy !

How do The People flex their power? A general strike! tinyurl.com/36tvahzf I support unions & sacrifices made so Am. workers aren't exploited. As elected PA-13 US Rep., I'll work with unions to legislate goals improving the working lives of Americans. Go to ALT. #ChooseDemocracy & UNION STRENGTH!

"MINNEAPOLIS – The Minneapolis Regional Labor Federation, AFL-CIO along with regional bodies throughout the state, including the Saint Paul Regional Labor Federation, the West Area Labor Council, the North East Area Labor Council and the East Central Labor Council, have joined in solidarity to endorse a powerful unified statewide action on January 23: Day of Truth and Freedom. The Minnesota labor movement is united against the violent ICE occupation of our beloved cities that has directly impacted union members, our workplaces and our families.” Link: https://tinyurl.com/36tvahzf By holding a general strike on Friday, the Minneapolis AFL-CIO and other local unions will show the Trump administration who really holds the power in this country. Their demands are just and simple - ICE needs to leave Minnesota and be held accountable for their crimes.

Why am I the best candidate for mental health?
I believe in MORE funding for mental health & drug addiction services, not less & universal healthcare that consistently provides treatment independent of employment status. See ALT for more.
Together, we #ChooseDemocracy and Universal Healthcare!
Woman's Face (Beth Farnham) with Capitol Dome in the background. 'We are definitely looking at severe loss of front-line capacity,' said Andrew Kessler, head of Slingshot Solutions, a consultancy firm that works with mental health and addiction groups nationwide. '[Programs] may have to shut their doors tomorrow.’" https://tinyurl.com/3fur54k9 And the Trump administration should be accountable for the severe harm they are doing to the residents of this country. I have never supported that person who just arbitrarily cut off funding for mental health services. Meanwhile, our own US Representative, multimillionaire John Joyce, will likely twist himself into knots because he will try to justify Trump's horrible actions instead of impeaching Trump for illegally impounding congressionally-approved funds. But it doesn't have to be this way. Please vote for me, Beth Farnham, in November so that I can work on improving the lives of Everyday Americans. Together, we #ChooseDemocracy and Universal Healthcare!
