Policy Priorities

I have a long-standing reputation as a lawmaker dedicated to civil liberties, to improving health care for all, to fair taxes, environmental protection and to quality public education. I have encouraged arts and economic development that have benefited millions of Philadelphians and Pennsylvanians, and I believe strongly that a commitment to diversity and economic development are inextricably intertwined.

I invite you to explore this section of the site for more detailed information on my policy priorities and my positions on various issues. Just select from the links to the left.
