Congressman Brady Twitters

Philadelphia --- Congressman Bob Brady (D., PA) is taking part in a House Democrats New Media Competition between Members who are battling to see who can gain the largest following on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube combined.  
 
In the spirit of the competition Brady is inviting constituents to join his social network. “We’re in the midst of a new media revolution that allows for instant access and feedback regarding the challenging issues we are facing. Hopefully this competition will help to get people more engaged with government. And, I believe the First District can rally together so we can win this contest.”

Already an active member of Facebook and YouTube, last month Congressman Brady joined the Twitter generation by adding Twitter to his social media repertoire.
 
Congressman Brady says he welcomes new and innovative ways to interact with the people in his district. “I admit my first preference as an old school politician is to pick up the phone, but I am enjoying learning how to navigate the new media and expand how I communicate with voters and how they can communicate with me.”
