Welcome

Welcome to my campaign website.  On this site you will find information about me, my campaign for State Senator for the 19th District, and my positions on issues affecting our district and the Commonwealth as a whole.  I hope that you will like what you see and offer me your valuable support.  Together, we can win this seat and take a critical step towards, real, measurable action and reform in Harrisburg.

In a nutshell, I have chosen to campaign for the 19th District State Senate Seat because I am tired of politicians ignoring our biggest problems while protecting only their own interests.  Public education is in real trouble and needs to be reformed.  Pennsylvania’s pension plans are alarmingly underfunded. Our state and local economy continues to struggle, and steps need to be taken to strengthen our small businesses, restore economic stability and bring jobs to the region. To preserve scant resources, we need to eliminate waste everywhere that taxpayer money is being spent.  Entitlement spending has spiraled out of control and must be managed. These are issues that matter to everyone and upon which our very future, and the future of our families, depend.  Yet, Senator Dinniman’s record reflects apathy on these issues.  In a climate where we must be looking for ways to save, Senator Dinniman continues to boast about how much money is being spent.  I cannot understand that.  Can you?
