Tara Shakespeare

Tara is running for Pennsylvania State House because she believes that we need more elected officials who understand the struggles of everyday people and are committed to standing up for us, rather than talking down to us.

Tara comes to civil service through her own struggles trying to navigate our broken healthcare system. She knows that too many people are one bad month away from losing everything. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Tara will ensure that Pennsylvania residents have affordable and adequate healthcare, clean air and water as promised by the state’s constitution, and increased government transparency.
