Metcalfe says he will not seek reelection
State Rep. Daryl Metcalfe, R-12th, announced publicly Tuesday that he does not plan to seek re-election to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in 2022.
In a statement, Metcalfe said he announced his decision to his family on Jan. 1.
“After family discussions, prayerful consideration and affirmation that God is calling me to a new adventure in life, I do not plan to seek reelection for state representative in 2022,” Metcalfe said in a statement. “In the future, I plan to continue fighting in defense of our God-given rights and our Constitution wherein they are affirmed.”
Metcalfe plans to finish his current term of office, which ends Nov. 30, 2022.
“I have been blessed by God with 12 legislative election victories over the last 24 years,” he said. “I am thankful to the voters who trusted me to represent them in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. I am honored by the broad and deep base of support from citizens across the state who supported my work to limit government, protect taxpayers and defend liberty.”
Metcalfe is currently serving his 12th term as state representative for the 12th Legislative District in Butler County, which includes Adams, Clinton, Cranberry, Forward, Middlesex and Penn townships, and Callery, Mars, Seven Fields and Valencia boroughs.
