I co-sponsored this bill because I believe lawmakers are here to work for the people, not for political parties. Voting rights are a hallmark of citizenship, so we must secure this right for Independent voters by allowing them to participate in primary elections.

During a @PA_HouseApprops #pabudget hearing, I spoke with the PA State System of Higher Education & PA Commission for Community Colleges about my proposal with Rep. Kristin Marcell (R-Bucks) to establish dedicated funding for community colleges to support these programs.
