Smart Voter Political Philosophy for Jonathan A. Ruth

Candidate for
State Representative; Pennsylvania State House of Representatives; District 68

Public Education

PA has shifted the burden of public education to local districts, creating a greater disparity than ever between rich and poor districts, and our region is bearing the brunt of this. We need to ensure that every PA student has a fair opportunity to succeed.

Jobs & Infrastructure

In the past 4 years, our state has gone from 7th to 41st in job creation. Trickle-down Republican economic policies have been proven not to work. We need to invest in our failing infrastructure, innovation, technology, and clean energy to build a 21st century work force in Pennsylvania.

Environment & Gas

We need to be better stewards of our natural resources. The gas industry was given free reign by Corbett and Baker, but we need to enact tougher regulations, environmental and financial, to be sure our children's children can enjoy the beauty of our region.
