Health starts with the air we breathe and the water we drink. Environmental protection is key to our future and the future of our children. Michele is committed to fight for clean air and water for the families in the 44th District.

For our community to thrive, we must support the health of our family and friends. Michele believes that Healthcare is a human right, not a privilege for the few. She will seek out evidence-based, science-backed information to make critical decisions that impact the health of our community, and will fight to protect the Affordable Care Act in Harrisburg. Seniors, children, and working families need reliable care to ensure that pre-existing conditions do not impact their eligibility for good health insurance. Also, college students who invest in learning should be able to get fair coverage until they enter the workforce. And our community’s elders should not have to choose between the life-saving medicine they need and a decent meal. Learn more
She will go to bat for local taxpayers to keep property taxes in check and ensure that their hard-earned money is used effectively and is re-invested in the community. With nearly one-third of tax dollars currently allocated to education, Michele has the expertise we need to make sure that money is invested wisely, not wasted. Learn more
Michele will advocate for a solid minimum wage so families can invest in our community instead of worrying about how to make ends meet. $7.25 buys a loaf of bread and a gallon of milk in today’s economy. We need to ensure that families who are working 40+ hours a week are making a wage that can meet their bills. Learn more
The people in our district are extremely hardworking, with more union members than nearly any other district in Allegheny County. Michele will stand with unions and support quality jobs. Good-paying jobs strengthen our community and make it possible to support local businesses. Learn more
