Bucks County’s Republican commissioners laid out the platform for their re-election campaigns Monday at the Pennsylvania Biotechnology Center of Bucks County in Doylestown. Commissioners Charley Martin and Rob Loughery focused on what they called “Building on a Strong Foundation,” which includes job creation, bridge repair, communications renovation and making use of the old courthouse.
