Neighbors: Welcome former Highland Park resident Jess King back to Pittsburgh and hear about her vision for an America that works for all of us at the Union Project, 6:30pm - 9pm, Thursday, September 28. Help her flip a US Congressional seat from red to blue in PA’s 16th Congressional District - in South Central PA, including parts of Lancaster, Berks & Chester Counties. The event will feature Q&A time with Jess and remarks from Pittsburgh Mayor Bill Peduto. Brief program at 7PM. Facebook event link:https://www.facebook.com/events/101216847272147/ Jess' website: https://jesskingforcongress.com/ Jess was born and raised in Lancaster County but spent 11 years in Pittsburgh, coming as a PULSE volunteer and directing PULSE for 4 years, and serving as the Founding Executive Director of the Union Project for 6 years. She has spent her career in PA doing equitable community development - which she continues in Lancaster. Her life and work bridge the district’s diverse constituencies - from faith-based business owners and working families of color, from refugees and rural farmers. She is a respected, authentic local leader with a deep local and national network. Jess is running for office because she sees how federal policy - from finance to housing to health care - needs to work for all of us. Refreshments and drinks will be provided. Paola Jackson St.
