- The Value of Public Education
-
The American public education system, once the glory of this nation, is being weakened and dismantled.
- Fixing Our Infrastructure
-
Failing to maintain the commonwealth's assets is standard operating procedure under a 'don't spend' mindset disguised as fiscal responsibility. It is the most expensive way to govern. Homeowners and car owners know if you don't maintain your property or vehicle properly the ultimate repair costs will be higher.
- PA Jobs
-
In 2010 PA had the 7th best job growth rate in the nation. PA is now 47th. A balanced approach to job creation, including employee training, hiring incentives for employers, and public-private partnerships for economic growth, is needed.
