Congressman Chris Deluzio is a Thornburg native and Iraq War veteran in his second term representing the 17th district of Pennsylvania in the U.S. House of Representatives. In Congress, Chris is committed to fighting for our Western Pennsylvania priorities and standing up for our Constitution. Chris is all in to ensure strong labor unions, create good-paying jobs, make stuff here at home, take on corruption, protect reproductive freedom, stand up for our veterans, and lower costs. Chris believes that if you work hard and play by the rules, you deserve a real shot at the American Dream. Prior to his election in 2022, Chris worked as an attorney and protected voting rights and fair elections as the policy director at Pitt Cyber, and previously at the Brennan Center for Justice. He also fought alongside fellow faculty members and the United Steelworkers as a member of the Pitt Faculty Organizing Committee to secure a faculty union at Pitt—the biggest union election in the country in 2021.

Senator Williams represents District 38 in Allegheny County, which includes parts of the City of Pittsburgh and most of Northern Allegheny County. She serves as the Minority Chair of the Senate Education Committee and as a Board Member of Pittsburgh Regional Transit (PRT), the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA), and the State Board of Education. Lindsey earned her undergraduate degree from Dickinson College in Carlisle. Lindsey then attended Duquesne University School of Law, where she focused on protecting workers’ rights, following the example of her dad, who supported their family as an Operating Engineer in his local union. After law school, Lindsey joined the National Whistleblower Center, where she worked to expose corruption and advocate for whistleblower protections. When she and several coworkers attempted to unionize, they were illegally fired. Lindsey refused to be silenced and took her case to the National Labor Relations Board. Lindsey continued her work on behalf of working people at the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, helping members organize strikes and labor actions across the country. She then returned to Pittsburgh to work for the Pittsburgh Federation of Teachers. In 2018, with the support of workers, educators, parents, and community members across the district, Lindsey won her race for State Senate by just 793 votes. She’s taken that responsibility seriously every day since by fighting for working families, honest government, and policies that better people’s lives. In her spare time, Lindsey enjoys being with friends, family, and her adorable dog, Willow.

Every day as Governor, Josh Shapiro has brought people together to get stuff done and protect Pennsylvanians’ fundamental freedoms.
Governor Shapiro believes all Pennsylvanians should have the freedom to chart their own course and the opportunity to succeed – and that is what he has worked to deliver: from creating jobs and putting money back in people’s pockets, to investing in law enforcement and community organizations to improve public safety, to delivering historic funding for our kids’ education, to protecting our freedoms and our democracy. Under Josh Shapiro’s leadership, we have invested more in public education than ever before, hired hundreds of new law enforcement officers, created thousands of new jobs, and put money back in people’s pockets.
From seeing his parents serve others – his father in the Navy and as the local pediatrician and his mother as an educator – to marrying his high-school sweetheart, Lori, and raising four children in the community and traditions they grew up in, to a career fighting for the people of Pennsylvania, Governor Shapiro’s life has been grounded in faith, family, and public service. As Governor, he has made it a priority to represent all Pennsylvanians, traveling to communities all across the Commonwealth and meeting Pennsylvanians from all walks of life.
Growing up in the Mon Valley in western Pennsylvania – a historic industrial center just south of the City of Pittsburgh – Lieutenant Governor Austin Davis saw the struggles of working families firsthand. He watched his mom – a hairdresser in McKeesport for more than 40 years – juggle raising a family with putting food on the table. He watched his dad work hard every day as a union bus driver. Since taking office, Lieutenant Governor Davis has led the efforts to drive out $85 million in Violence Intervention and Prevention (VIP) grants to over 130 projects statewide, $5 million increase in funding to secure places of worship and community centers, and $60 million in new funding for county 911 services. He also championed efforts to provide $11.5 million to launch the Building Opportunity through Out of School Time (BOOST) program, supporting 46 programs in its first year to give young people in Pennsylvania a safe environment during after-school hours. This is the first ever state program that directed state dollars directly into after school programs in Pennsylvania history. He currently resides in the Mon Valley region of western Pennsylvania with his wife, Blayre Holmes Davis, and their daughter, Harper.
