FAIR FUNDING
BIPARTISAN POCONO ISSUES
FACTS:
Did you know Monroe and Pike counties together have over 105 bridges rated in poor condition? Did you know an average firefighter's outfit and fully equipped gear can cost over $7000 per person?
ISSUE AT HAND:
Anyone that has lived here long enough knows the issues: road and bridge improvements, education, funding for our first responders, and on and on. The Poconos has always been the welcome mat for Pennsylvania, but always gets treated like the ole doormat when it comes to funding. For decades we have been taken advantage of and this has to stop.
BENEFITS & SOLUTIONS:
What is needed is an ambassador for the Poconos that knows the area like the back of their hand. Someone that has worked on numerous projects that have created hundreds of jobs and understands what is like to run a business even in the toughest of times. Someone that is not afraid to step up and represent the Poconos on a State level and command the floor to promote the value of what the 189th brings to the commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This is what is needed in a leader and someone that will fight for everyone and make sure Harrisburg understands that the Poconos matter. This is why I am running!
