    • "Nine Democrats who voted in favor of a bill to increase abortion restrictions in Pennsylvania last session flipped to voting against a similar bill this year.  State Reps. Tom Caltagirone, Dom Costa, Dan Deasy, John Galloway, Bill Kortz, Rob Matzie, Adam Ravenstahl, and Harry Readshaw voted for HB 1948 last session and against SB 3 this session.  The flip in votes is a direct reflection of the shifting winds within the Democratic party, namely the rise of younger and increasingly active women" (PoliticsPa, 12/22/17)
