HD97 has been identified as a key swing district. Democrats must win this seat to flip the State House and make progress for working families in Pennsylvania.
Dana Hamp Gulick is the Democratic candidate for the Pennsylvania State House seat in the 97th district. Gulick grew up in Manheim Township and attended University of Pittsburgh. Gulick pursued her early career in Hawaii, but returned to Pennsylvania with her daughter to stay with family when her husband became addicted to opioids. Gulick says she entered public service to help families like hers that are torn apart by addiction.
Gulick’s positions reflect her progressive values. She has pledged to fight the opioid crisis with education, treatment and compassion. She also advocates reducing gun violence with background checks and red-flag laws. Gulick champions environmental conservation by aiming to eliminate fracking. Gulick states she will fight for affordable health care and help Pennsylvanians negotiate lower health care costs. She also is dedicated to an equitable education system and supporting teacher pensions.
Gulick is running against Republican incumbent Steven Mentzer, who has held the seat since 2013. Mentzer cosponsored a bill to defund poorer public schools in favor of wealthier ones. In 2018, he sponsored a bill that forced sick Pennsylvanians to work in order to get the life-saving healthcare they needed. In the middle of a pandemic, Steven Mentzer 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.
Dana Hamp Gulick is the clear progressive choice in this race.Dana Hamp Gulick
