Working for you

Mike is running for State Senate because Pennsylvania is at a turning point and we need leaders who are ready to meet the moment. This campaign is about flipping the Senate to put power back in the hands of the people, raising wages so every family can thrive, and confronting the moral crisis that’s leaving too many communities behind. It’s about defending our elections from those who would undermine our democracy, and making real investments in public education so every child no matter their zip code has a fair shot.

This campaign is about building a future

that works for all of us

and having the courage to fight for it.
