Brad Kirsch for State Representative

We’re all in this together!

Parents trying to raise a family, grandparents who don’t want to burden their children as they worry about providing education to their grandchildren. From the young seeking jobs to those in their senior years who live in fear without the social safety net they were promised, to those seniors who are forced daily to choose between food and prescription drugs. Have you heard enough talk about meaningless issues? Let’s solve the issues that cause pain.

“We can no longer afford the disruptive politics of old against young that forces painful choices between our children’s education and our parents’ health!”

Do you want to elect a problem solver or an excuse giver?

Do we want to elect someone who uses your money to mail you slick information pamphlets, paid for with your tax dollars – and then tells you why he can’t support Governor Rendell’s Plan for Pennsylvania. The Plans of the Governor you already voted for are at stake. If you care about your community it’s time to take charge!
