Jen Dintini isn’t your typical candidate for office. Thank goodness. We’ve seen the results from sending the same types of politicians to Harrisburg. They’ve failed us and It’s time for a change. Jen is a small business owner- She owns two security firms that employ hundreds of people in our area. Jen is ready to shake things up and get things done.
The shortage of economic opportunities, causing a decline in our population, is a major issue in the Commonwealth and especially in the 45th district. As jobs have vanished, so have families. I'm running because I want to see more jobs and opportunities here, so my children can build their lives close to home instead of having to move out of state to find success.
