Sen. John Fetterman Denies Party-Switching Rumors

The Pennsylvania Democrat reaffirms his commitment to his party after speculation over his outreach to Republicans and President Trump.

Sen. John Fetterman dismissed rumors of leaving the Democratic Party, calling the speculation 'amateur-hour' and reaffirming his allegiance to the party.
Fetterman emphasized he is focused on representing all Pennsylvanians, not just Democrats, and fostering bipartisan collaboration on key issues.
The rumors arose after Fetterman met with President Trump at Mar-a-Lago to discuss policy initiatives, including the Laken Riley Act and tariffs benefiting U.S. steelworkers.
Fetterman has drawn attention for his support of Israel during the Gaza conflict and his willingness to support some of President Trump's cabinet nominees.
Despite his outreach to Republicans, Fetterman has reiterated privately and publicly that he has no intention of switching parties or becoming an Independent.
