Political Philosophy for Barbara McIlvaine Smith
Candidate for |
![]() | ||
|
TRUSTED. TESTED. PROVEN. This race is about what we deserve and expect from our elected leaders in Harrisburg and which candidate can offer the right kind of leadership. Leadership is about acting responsibly. It's about putting citizens' needs ahead of personal political interests. Leadership means aggressively fighting against closed-door political dealings while building the coalitions of support to solve the problems of this state. Since elected, I have reached across the aisles to find like-minded colleagues to work with on common goals. "I believe that without trust we cannot move this country, or our great state, forward. And trust cannot be achieved without communication." My life experience, like most of you know, is very broad based. As a former small-business owner providing service to residents all over the area, a former borough council member, a leader for the re-energizing of West Chester's downtown and an advocate for responsible decision making on key issues such as property taxes, smart growth, and quality education -- I want to continue to serve as a citizen leader in Harrisburg putting your interest above all else. |
