Graham Gonzales is the Democratic candidate for the Pennsylvania State House seat in the 5th legislative district. Gonzales is a recent graduate of Brown University, where he studied economics and political science.
Gonzales’s top priority is supporting workers. He pledges to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour and ensuring fair overtime pay. He also supports regulating the healthcare industry and bringing down the costs of pharmaceuticals. In addition, Gonzales advocates for increased funding for public schools. His plans to do this by reducing property taxes and replacing those funds either with an income tax on the highest earners in the state, or by increasing the state sales tax.
Gonzales is challenging Republican Barry Jozwiak. He is a former state police officer. Jozwiak has voted to eliminate the General Assistance, the largest anti-poverty program in the state. He has also voted to take away food stamps from his poorest constituents. Jozwiak has a history of voting to weaken environmental protections. In the middle of a pandemic, Barry Jozwiak joined Republicans in their near unanimous vote against providing protective gear, testing, hazard pay, family leave, and preserving disaster declarations put in place to protect Pennsylvanians.
Graham Gonzales is the clear progressive choice in this race.Graham Gonzales
