Chris Dietz has been endorsed by Progressive Majority, www.progressivemajority.org/, joining a small group of only 20 candidates from across the United States. Chris is running to advocate for quality education, government reform, and to foster job creation in the 104th House District and across the Commonwealth. Jobs are important to Chris because he learned firsthand of the importance of family sustaining jobs after being laid off for more than a year, before being rehired by his previous employer. Chris has three young nephews, so quality public education is a priority for him. Pennsylvania must ensure future generations have equal or better opportunities to learn the necessary skills to compete for careers in the global economy. With the reapportionment process continuing to drag on, it is quite apparent that we need to reform our state government procedures. In times when few workers are seeing raises, when many citizens are unable to find work, when schools districts are cutting education programs and closing schools, the fact that our legislators receive an automatic cost of living increase is out of touch with the people of our great state.Chris is proud to continue building a broad based coalition with those concerned about job creation, public education, government reform, conservation, equal rights, women’s rights, mental health, veteran’s affairs and the middle class.Organizations that have endorsed Chris Dietz:· Progressive Majority· Victory Fund· PSEA· SEIU State Council· Equality PA· Planned Parenthood PA Advocates· PA NOW· Central PA Building Trades· Capital Region Stonewall Democrats· Plumbers and Pipe Fitters Local 520· IBEW Local 143
