Issue Position: Jobs and Education

Issue Position

As someone who earned his degree as a non-traditional student, Joe knows the struggles many Pennsylvanians face in their pursuit of higher education. With the significant funding cuts enacted by the Corbett administration, obtaining a college degree is more daunting than ever.

Worse, as our economy and the quality of our public universities have suffered severely under this administration, those who attend college often leave school with burdensome debt and little hope of securing entry into the job market. Joe will lead the fight to improve our public schools and contain the costs of education, so that Pennsylvania can get back to work.
