Nicole Ruscitto is a dedicated educator, coach, and community advocate, born and raised in Pennsylvania’s 37th District.

Nicole is committed to protecting reproductive rights, raising wages, and supporting working families through paid leave and affordable childcare.
In the state legislature, the majority party controls the legislative agenda, including which bills receive a vote and what policies are prioritized. For years, the Republican majority in the Pennsylvania Senate has blocked progress on critical issues, standing in the way of the change that Pennsylvanians want and need.
Senate Republicans have repeatedly refused to bring up bills passed by the House that would benefit working families, such as raising the minimum wage, expanding paid leave, and implementing commonsense gun safety laws. They've obstructed efforts to protect and expand voting rights, and they've stalled legislation to fully fund our public schools and address decades of inequity. Instead of working for everyday Pennsylvanians, the Republican Senate has prioritized tax cuts for the wealthy and protecting corporate interests over the needs of our communities.
Electing a Democratic majority in the Senate is the only way to break this gridlock and advance policies that truly reflect the values of Pennsylvania families. With a Democratic majority, we can pass the bills that will make a real difference—ensuring fair wages, safe communities, fully funded schools, and the protection of our rights and freedoms.
