Charles Dumas Candidate for 5th Congressional District

Missa Eaton of Sharon has announced she will file petitions to run for the new 3rd Congressional District (covering southern Clarion County). Eaton recently met with members of the Clarion County Exec Board, including Chair Bill Miller.

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court recently handed down a historic decision. For the first time in 50 years, they rejected the plan proposed by the Legislative Reapportionment Commission for the state senate and house districts.

During this year's redistricting process, the Republicans who were in control of every step of the process went about it in all the wrong ways. Shutting out public input, they put partisanship over representation, splitting up cities and communities and moving districts from one end of the Commonwealth to the other.

Overreach has consequences. The Supreme Court has insisted that the legislative districts as drawn are unacceptable, as we all already knew.

There are still a lot of questions about what comes next. There will be a lot of work to do to make sure the new districts are improved and that Democrats who will represent the people of their district can win in November.

Will you contribute today to ensure that we have the resources we need to help Democrats win these future districts?
