The stakes of next month’s election are incredibly high, so here’s a quick breakdown of some key issues and why we have to keep House Democrats in power:
Reproductive rights: House Democrats have fought tirelessly to defend abortion rights and expand access to reproductive healthcare providers across the state.
Education: This year, we secured the largest single investment in K-12 public education in Pennsylvania’s history — $11 billion to improve our public schools and give every child the opportunities they deserve.
Equal rights: House Democrats passed bills to expand protections for our LGBTQ+ neighbors and to prohibit discrimination based on hair type, texture, or style — ensuring fairness for all Pennsylvanians.
Voting access: Joanna has spearheaded legislation to make voting more accessible by introducing early voting and same-day voter registration so that more voters in Pennsylvania have the opportunity to make their voices heard.
House Democrats’ record is a stark contrast to when Republicans were in power. When the GOP was in charge, they pushed a radical agenda that put our rights at risk. Republicans didn’t just fail to stand up for women’s reproductive health — they tried to throw out our votes in 2020! These are the same Republicans who want to roll back the progress we’ve made and take control of the State House again.
Joanna McClinton serves as the Speaker of the Pennsylvania State House, while proudly serving the 191st district.
Joanna has made important strides to enact progress in the Pennsylvania Legislature. From working to protect the rights of those accused in our criminal justice system to spearheading the fight to expand our voting rights, she has proven that she will always prioritize the prosperity of Pennsylvanians over the promise of power.
