The 182nd district is unique. It's located in the center of Philadelphia, the largest city in Pennsylvania. It contains the headquarters of Philadelphia's city government, City Hall. Some of the largest companies in Pennsylvania, our nation, and the world have their headquarters here. We have rich diversity in culture, race, sexual orientation, religion, and age - and we are arguably the most progressive district in Pennsylvania. Because of these attributes, we should be the voice for progressive values in the state. We should be the voice for business in the state. And we should be the voice for Philadelphia in the state. It's time for a new direction.
