Daniel Philip Meuser[1][2] (/ˈmjuːzər/ MEW-zər; born February 10, 1964)[3] is an American businessman and politician serving as the U.S. representative for Pennsylvania's 9th congressional district since 2019.[4] A Republican, he previously served as the secretary of revenue in the cabinet of Pennsylvania governor Tom Corbett. He was previously president of the Pride Corporation, a manufacturer of motorized wheelchairs in the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton metro area of Pennsylvania, and currently serves the company as a board member and consultant.[5] He has testified before Congress regarding the criticality for federal practices surrounding rights and caring for the disabled.

Key Information

On January 6, 2021, Meuser was among the 147 Republican members of Congress who voted against the certification of the results of the 2020 United States presidential election.[6]

Business career

[edit]

Meuser was an executive at Pride Mobility Products, a business he built with his brother Scott and his father Stan.[7] His brother, Scott Meuser, is the chairman and CEO of the company.[8] Meuser left the company in August 2008 to pursue a career in public service. He had worked there since 1988. Although he left his position, he remained on the company's board of directors.[9] During Meuser's tenure at Pride, the company grew from $2 million in sales to over $400 million.[10] In 2002, Pride paid $80,000 to settle a government investigation that a Pride customer referral program intended to connect interested consumers with Pride product retailers was not compliant because retailers were required to pay Pride between $10 and $25 per referral as opposed to a flat annual fee.[11]

In 2006, Meuser received HomeCare magazine's HomeCaring Award, which recognized his work in the home medical equipment industry.[10]

Elections

2008

[edit]
See also: 2008 United States House of Representatives elections in Pennsylvania § District 10

Meuser was a candidate for the GOP nomination in Pennsylvania's 10th congressional district, having announced the launch of his campaign in September 2007. He lost the Republican primary to fellow businessman Chris Hackett, who went on to lose to Democratic incumbent Chris Carney in November 2008. Meuser heavily underscored his conservative values, referencing Ronald Reagan and emphasizing his work at Pride Mobility as part of a larger effort to embrace small-scale government and low taxes. The endorsements he received included many prominent Pennsylvania conservatives, including former U.S. senator Rick Santorum and then-Hazleton mayor Lou Barletta.[citation needed]

Hackett attacked Meuser for hiring undocumented immigrants at Pride Mobility and funding prominent national Democratic politicians. In 1997, Pride Mobility was fined $41,000 for hiring three undocumented immigrants in 1995; the fine was reduced to $23,000 after Pride Mobility appealed.[12] The individuals in question had presented false documentation to Pride before technology like E-Verify was available. Pride took the incident seriously and took steps to ensure they wouldn't recur.[13]

The discovery that Hackett had previously hired an undocumented immigrant as a maid in his home—though he claimed to have dismissed her once he learned of her status—was perceived to seriously damage his image. On the night of the primary, the very close returns—despite initially displaying a comfortable Meuser lead—soon indicated a virtual tie for much of the night, with little more than 100 votes separating the candidates at one point. But as time passed, Hackett took a lead. By roughly 11:15 p.m. ET, local news media and the Associated Press projected Hackett as the winner, with 52% of the vote to Meuser's 48%.[citation needed]

When Meuser ran for the 10th congressional district in 2008, he lived in the 11th congressional district, where Lou Barletta was running for Congress against incumbent Paul Kanjorski. Meuser promised that he would actually live in the district by the time voters cast their ballots in the primary election; he had purchased a house in Harvey's Lake, which is in the 10th district. He still resides in Dallas, Pennsylvania.[14]

"I am running because I love my country and I want a government people can have faith in again. My twenty-five years in business and four years as PA Secretary of Revenue have given me the experiences necessary to be an effective, conservative member of Congress."

Meuser won the 2018 general election for Pennsylvania's 9th congressional district with 59.7% of the vote, versus Denny Wolff's 40.3%.[citation needed]

In October 2017, Meuser announced that he would run as a Republican to represent Pennsylvania's 9th congressional district. The district had previously been the 11th, represented by Lou Barletta, who was running for the United States Senate.[16][17]

In March 2018, over 100 members of the Lebanon County Republican Committee endorsed Meuser. Meuser "strongly backed" President Donald Trump's "America First agenda".[citation needed]

The Republican primary candidates were Meuser, Scott Uehlinger and George Halcovage. The Democratic candidates were Susan Quick, Denny Wolff and Gary Wegman.[17] The primary election was held on May 15, 2018.[18]

On April 18, 2018, the Making America Great PAC endorsed Meuser. The PAC's chairman said, "Dan is a business-minded problem solver, a conservative, and he is focused on results, not rhetoric. Dan will go to Washington and join President Trump to fight for the America First Agenda."[19]

In early May 2018, the Republican Committee of Columbia County met with all three candidates running for the 9th congressional district seat. After a series of questions about their campaign priorities, the committee voted to support Meuser.[20]

Among Meuser's local endorsements were Shamokin mayor John Brown and city councilman Dan McGaw.[21]

Before a debate in Berks County, Meuser told opponent Denny Wolff to "go to hell", which he originally denied before later acknowledging.[22]

In May 2018, Meuser's campaign announced an initiative called "Women for Meuser", a group of women supporters of Meuser for Congress.[23] Meuser was endorsed by at least 31 prominent elected or politically active women, including state senator Lisa Baker, television host Tiffany Cloud, state representative Tarah Toohil, state representative Karen Boback, and Luzerne County district attorney Stefanie Salavantis.[23]

Tenure

[edit]

In December 2020, Meuser joined over 120 Republican members of the House of Representatives in signing an amicus brief in support of a Texas lawsuit that sought to invalidate Pennsylvania's 2020 presidential election votes. The Pennsylvania Attorney General called the case a "seditious abuse of the judicial process".[25][26] The Supreme Court issued orders on December 11, declining to hear the case on the basis that Texas lacked standing under Article III of the Constitution to challenge the results of an election held by another state.[27][28]

In August 2021, LegiStorm reported that Meuser had violated the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act of 2012, a federal transparency and conflict-of-interest law, by failing to properly disclose stock trades made by his wife and children in March 2021 worth as much as $600,000.[29]

Meuser was a candidate to be the Republican Party nominee for Speaker of the House in the October 2023 Speaker of the United States House of Representatives election, but dropped out on October 23, 2023.[30]

Political positions

[edit]

Abortion

[edit]

Meuser opposes legalized abortion and has called fetuses "pre-born human persons."[17] According to his campaign, "Dan has personally funded chartered buses to take people from our area to the annual March for Life Rally in Washington, D.C."[40] He opposes federal funding for abortion and federal health coverage that includes abortion services. He also believes that "equal protection must be granted to each born and pre-born human person via the United States Constitution under the 14th Amendment".[40]

Defense and military

[edit]

Meuser supported Trump's plan to increase defense spending by $54 billion. He also supported the travel ban on countries that Trump implemented, with his campaign saying, "We cannot allow individuals to enter our country without knowing enough about their identity and background and the need to improve our immigration vetting processes, end visa overstays and examine the issues of chain migration. We can no longer stand by and allow individuals we know little about from countries hell-bent on destroying America enter our country."[41]

Donald Trump

[edit]
Meuser greeting President Donald Trump in March 2020

As the House of Representatives was debating HR 489 in July 2019, which passed 240 - 187,[42] condemning Trump for promoting racism and xenophobia after he attacked four Democratic members of Congress, telling them to "go back" to the "places from which they came," Meuser defended Trump and called the bill a baseless attack by Democratic leadership. "I strongly oppose Democrat leadership's latest effort to harass [Trump]. For years, he and his supporters have been subjected to baseless attacks. Such slander is a disservice to our nation and the American people, and I am tired of it."[43] The tweet from which the quote is sourced contained a video in which Meuser, standing on the House floor, said, "I rise today in opposition of House Resolution 489."[44]

In December 2020, Meuser joined over 120 House Republicans in signing an amicus brief in support of a Texas lawsuit that sought to invalidate Pennsylvania's 2020 presidential election votes.[45] Following the storming of the U.S. Capitol building by Trump supporters, Meuser voted to reject the certification of Pennsylvania's electoral votes in the 2020 presidential election.[46] He voted against impeaching Trump on an article of impeachment of "incitement of insurrection" in the aftermath of the attack on the Capitol.[47] In May 2021, Meuser voted against the creation of an independent commission to investigate the January 6 attack.[48]

In 2024, Meuser labelled Trump's New York hush money trial as "a blatant attempt to undermine democracy" and "sham trial."[49]

Drugs

[edit]

Meuser supported Trump's declaration of the opioid epidemic as a national health emergency. He has proposed a three-pronged approach: supply (by increasing the standards by which prescription opioids are prescribed), harm reduction (by having medication drop off programs in communities and by incrementing electronic databases for monitoring opioid prescriptions), and recovery (by coordinating efforts to help non-violent drug offenders become rehabilitated as productive members of society).[50] Meuser voted against the MORE Act, which would have removed cannabis from the federal Controlled Substances Act.[51]

Gun rights

[edit]

Meuser supports an individual right to keep, own, use and carry firearms, earning an endorsement from at least one pro-gun Political Action Campaign.[52]

Immigration

[edit]

Meuser supported Trump's proposal to construct a wall on the entire border with Mexico. He opposes giving federal funds to sanctuary cities. Meuser has argued that President Obama's executive order on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) was unconstitutional and supports ending DACA. He also supports the government cracking down on employers who knowingly hire illegal immigrants.[53]

Meuser sponsored H.R. 6202, the American Tech Workforce Act of 2021, introduced by Representative Jim Banks. The legislation would establish a wage floor for the high-skill H-1B visa program, thereby significantly reducing employer dependence on the program. The bill would also eliminate the Optional Practical Training program that allows foreign graduates to stay and work in the United States.[54]

LGBT rights

[edit]

On July 19, 2022, Meuser was one of 47 Republican representatives who voted for the Respect for Marriage Act, which would codify the right to same-sex marriage in federal law.[55] Meuser said, "My vote in support of H.R. 8404 was to affirm the current law and support the rights and freedoms of all Americans. The passage of this legislation reflects current law, which was upheld by a Supreme Court ruling nearly 10 years ago. This vote was not difficult for me, as it does not infringe upon anyone’s personal and religious rights."[56] However, Meuser voted against final passage on December 8, 2022.[57]

Taxes

[edit]

Meuser believes that school property taxes are un-American and unconstitutional, his campaign stating "no tax should have the power to leave you homeless." He has also cited the 14th amendment in arguing that the government has no right to take property away from someone without due process of law or providing equal protections under the law.[58]

Meuser signed the "Taxpayer Protection Pledge" sponsored by Americans for Tax Reform. The pledge commits its signers to "oppose any and all efforts to increase the marginal income tax rates for individuals and/or businesses ... and oppose any net reduction or elimination of deductions and credits, unless matched dollar for dollar by further reducing tax rates".[59]

Texas v. Pennsylvania

[edit]

In December 2020, Meuser was one of 126 Republican representatives to sign an amicus brief in support of Texas v. Pennsylvania, a lawsuit filed at the United States Supreme Court contesting the results of the 2020 presidential election, in which Joe Biden defeated[60] Trump. The Supreme Court declined to hear the case on the basis that Texas lacked standing under Article III of the Constitution to challenge the results of an election held by another state.[27][28][61]

Ukraine

[edit]

In 2023, Meuser was among 98 Republicans to vote for a ban on cluster munitions to Ukraine.[62][63]

In 2023, Meuser voted for a moratorium on aid to Ukraine.[64][65]

Veterans

[edit]

Meuser supports the Veterans Choice Act, legislation passed during the Obama administration and extended by Congress during the Trump administration. The policy allows veterans who face long waiting times at VA facilities or live over 40 miles away from the nearest VA clinic to seek care in the private sector, and have the cost of that care covered.[66]

Political career

[edit]

Pennsylvania secretary of revenue

[edit]

Meuser was appointed Secretary of Revenue by Governor Tom Corbett after more than two decades in the private sector. The secretary's primary duties include administration and enforcement of state tax laws, effectively operating within reduced budget climate, collections of over 30 state taxes, setting annual state budget projections, developing tax policy for the governor and overseeing the growth and stability of the Pennsylvania Lottery, which generates gross sales of $3.6 billion and net revenue of $1.1 billion annually.

The Council On State Taxation (COST) gave PA an A− rating partly due to legislation that Meuser helped pass and the reforms he put into place.[67] Pennsylvania residents speculated about his appointment by Corbett given that he was one of the largest donors to Corbett's 2009–2010 campaign, making a total of 26 contributions totaling $76,394.[68] There is concern over a recent $103 million computer modernization system for the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue being performed by Accenture, a global technology consultant that the state of Maryland had previously fired by for a similar project due to wasteful spending and missed deadlines.[69]

In 2010, Politics Magazine called Meuser a "Former congressional candidate and northeast PA money man".[70]

Philanthropy and boards

[edit]

Meuser is a board member of the Greater Pittston Chamber of Commerce, sits on the board of trustees for Misericordia University, and is on the board of the Pittston Young Men's Christian Association.[71] [non-primary source needed]

Personal

[edit]

Meuser was born in Flushing, Queens, on February 10, 1964, and grew up in Babylon, New York.[72] He is married to Shelley Van Acker Meuser. They have three children.[40] He once claimed a home in Kingston Township, Pennsylvania as his residence, but changed his registration to a home in Dallas, Pennsylvania two months before the election. The Kingston home had been drawn into the 8th district after the Pennsylvania Supreme Court threw out Pennsylvania's old congressional map as an unconstitutional gerrymander. According to Meuser, his old home had been drawn just a mile outside the new 9th's borders.[73] Meuser is Roman Catholic.[74]

This approach targets the crisis's front lines, amid Pennsylvania's 5,449 deaths in 2021 (a rate of 43 per 100,000, double the national average) and as the leading cause of death for Americans aged 18-45 nationwide.

Regarding Ukraine's defense against Russia, he favors aid packages that include strong accountability measures to prevent waste and ensure funds reach the battlefield effectively, having voted for initial supplemental appropriations in 2022 but opposing or abstaining from later ones lacking such safeguards or domestic reciprocity. In March 2024, he stressed that additional Ukraine aid must incorporate detailed oversight, and in April 2024, he cast a "present" vote on a $61 billion package due to its failure to pair assistance with U.S. border security reforms. Meuser has advocated for linking foreign aid debates to border enforcement, rejecting standalone Ukraine funding bills that ignore America's southern frontier vulnerabilities.

His voting record reflects conditional support: Meuser voted in favor of the 2022 Ukraine supplemental appropriations bill providing emergency funding amid Russia's initial .

2020 election integrity

On November 7, 2020, he joined the Pennsylvania Republican congressional delegation in a statement criticizing the state's election officials for actions such as preemptively curing ballots and failing to provide adequate oversight, which they argued undermined voter confidence and potentially violated legislative intent on absentee voting rules. In anticipation of expanded mail-in voting, Meuser introduced the Stop Mail-In Voter Fraud Act on , 2020, which sought to mandate photocopies of identification with mail-in ballots and prohibit third-party ballot harvesting to safeguard against fraud risks associated with unsolicited ballots. The legislation reflected pre-election Republican apprehensions about Pennsylvania's Act 77, which expanded no-excuse mail voting without corresponding safeguards, amid reports of over 1.4 million mail ballots cast in the state. On December 31, 2020, Meuser endorsed a joint statement from Pennsylvania's Republican House members asserting that documented complaints of election irregularities—including backdated ballots, unsecured drop boxes, and observer restrictions—were submitted to courts but largely dismissed without full evidentiary hearings, rendering the process neither free nor fair. During the congressional joint session to certify electoral votes on January 6–7, 2021, Meuser voted to sustain the objection to Pennsylvania's 20 electoral votes for Joe Biden, arguing that state officials had usurped legislative authority through executive actions on voting rules, necessitating further scrutiny to ensure constitutional compliance.

Controversies and criticisms

Objections to 2020 election certification

Prior to the congressional certification of the 2020 results, Meuser joined other Pennsylvania Republican House members in expressing concerns over the state's election administration. On November 7, 2020, he and the GOP congressional delegation highlighted issues including conflicting last-minute guidance to counties, Josh Shapiro's dual role as a and legal overseer, of access to vote-counting sites for observers, and the handling of ballots received after 8 p.m. on Election Day in potential violation of a U.S. order by Justice . They demanded the resignation of Kathy , arguing these irregularities undermined public trust in the electoral process. On December 31, 2020, Meuser signed a statement with seven other Pennsylvania Republican representatives asserting that they could not support certification of the state's electors due to alleged unlawful changes to election procedures without legislative approval. The group cited U.S. Constitution provisions granting state legislatures exclusive authority over elections, pointing to actions by Pennsylvania's governor, secretary of state, and supreme court—such as accepting ballots postmarked after 8 p.m. on Election Day, inconsistent signature and date verification for mail-in ballots, short-notice allowances for ballot curing applied unevenly, unsecured drop boxes lacking statutory basis, and barring certified poll watchers in Philadelphia—as violations resulting in inaccurate vote tallies and denied equal protection. They contended that certification required disqualifying illegal ballots and recounting legal ones to ensure integrity. During the , 2021, joint session of to certify electoral votes, Meuser voted to sustain objections to 's 20 electors for , one of eight Pennsylvania Republicans to do so even after the Capitol breach disrupted proceedings. In a statement, he condemned the "violence and lawlessness" at the Capitol, thanking , but maintained his objection based on Pennsylvanians' frustration with what he described as unconstitutional overreach by state officials, reiterating specifics like late acceptance, flawed verification, inadequate curing notice, and unsecured drop boxes that bypassed legislative authority under Article I, Section 4 of the U.S. . He referenced then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's 2005 support for debating election integrity in as precedent for raising objections. Meuser's vote drew criticism from Democrats and some media outlets as an effort to subvert the outcome despite multiple rulings rejecting broader fraud claims, though many dismissals occurred on procedural grounds rather than full merits review of procedural irregularities. Opponents, including 's Democratic congressional delegation, argued such actions eroded democratic norms, while Meuser framed them as necessary constitutional oversight to address verifiable deviations from state . No federal charges or successful legal challenges overturned 's certified results, but subsequent state-level reviews, such as the Supreme 's 2022 ruling deeming aspects of Act 77 (enabling no-excuse mail voting) unconstitutional for future elections, lent partial retrospective validation to concerns over legislatively unapproved expansions.

Public protests and media scrutiny

In 2025, constituents in organized multiple protests targeting Representative Dan Meuser, primarily demanding in-person town halls to address policy concerns including support for President , , and federal spending. Local activists held weekly "Fight Back Friday" rallies outside Meuser's Williamsport satellite office, where protesters reported finding doors locked and no staff engagement, interpreting this as avoidance of direct constituent interaction. By July 2025, groups had conducted at least 19 such demonstrations since March, drawing over 200 participants in one Lebanon County event focused on opposition to Trump administration policies. These efforts escalated with the "No Kings Day" rallies in October 2025, where approximately 400 protesters gathered in Lebanon County to urge Meuser to host open forums and critique Trump as authoritarian, part of a broader national movement against perceived executive overreach. Similar actions occurred near Meuser's Pottsville office in August 2025, prompting a public response from the congressman dismissing the small group's criticisms as unrepresentative and emphasizing his alternative engagement methods like tele-town halls. Protesters expressed disappointment after limited meetings, such as a June 2025 session at the Lebanon County municipal building, where Meuser briefly interacted before addressing business leaders separately. Media coverage amplified these through local outlets, portraying Meuser's reluctance for unmoderated town halls as a pattern of constituent disengagement amid partisan tensions, though national scrutiny remained limited compared to his policy stances on election integrity. pieces and letters to editors, such as one following the Pottsville , accused Meuser of evading , reflecting activist narratives in progressive-leaning publications. Meuser countered in interviews, highlighting violent rhetoric in some anti-Trump protests—like calls to "kill Nazis" at "No Kings" —as evidence of extremism driving the demands, rather than genuine dialogue. This dynamic underscored broader critiques from conservative perspectives that such protests, often organized by Democratic-affiliated groups, prioritize disruption over .

Defenses against partisan attacks

Meuser has rebutted accusations of denialism by arguing that his objection to Pennsylvania's 2020 electoral votes stemmed from specific procedural flaws, including state officials' unilateral extension of mail-in deadlines without legislative approval and restrictions on poll observers, which he contended violated constitutional requirements for state legislatures to direct . He maintained that such objections, joined by dozens of fellow Republicans, aimed to prompt congressional review of disputed state certifications rather than negate voter will, aligning with pre-election concerns he raised via legislation like the Stop Mail-In Voter Fraud Act introduced in July 2020 to mandate verification safeguards. In addressing partisan linkages between his stance and the January 6, 2021, Capitol breach, Meuser condemned the violence unequivocally, describing it as "a terrible day for our nation" that demanded prevention of recurrence through enhanced security and accountability, while distinguishing peaceful expressions of concern from criminal acts. He rejected narratives portraying Republicans as solely responsible for inflammatory rhetoric, noting in 2024 that both parties contributed to heightened tensions and calling for de-escalation ahead of conventions. Similarly, following a 2025 attack on Governor Josh Shapiro's office, Meuser countered Democratic blame-shifting by highlighting examples of "violent and hostile commentary" from the left, asserting that all sides must examine their contributions to division. To counter ongoing claims of undermining democratic processes, Meuser has championed post-2020 reforms, including a 2024 letter to Pennsylvania's demanding explanations for voter roll inaccuracies and support for the SAVE Act requiring documentary proof of for federal voting, framing these as evidence-based steps to rebuild eroded by perceived lapses.
