The Priorities
Practical plans for the issues that hit home
No slogans. No chaos. Just clear, evidence-based solutions for public schools, property taxes, healthcare, clean water, and the health of our democracy.
1. Fully Funded Public Schools
As a science educator, I’ve seen firsthand what chronic underfunding does to classrooms — larger class sizes, fewer resources, and teachers paying out of pocket. Pennsylvania’s school funding system has been ruled unfair, and our kids are paying the price. I’ll fight for fair, predictable state funding so every child in District 178 gets a strong public education, and so local property taxpayers aren’t left holding the bag.
2. Real Property Tax Relief
Too many seniors and working families are being taxed out of homes they’ve owned for decades. Property taxes are tied directly to how Harrisburg funds schools — which means real relief requires fixing both. I’ll push for commonsense relief that lets retirees age in place and gives young families a fair shot at staying in the community they love.
3. Affordable Healthcare
Nobody should have to choose between a prescription and groceries. I’ll work to lower the cost of care and coverage, protect access for seniors and people with pre-existing conditions, and stand up to the special interests that profit from keeping prices high.
4. Clean Water & PFAS Cleanup
Bucks County families have lived with the consequences of PFAS contamination for too long. Clean drinking water isn’t a partisan issue — it’s a basic responsibility. I’ll hold polluters accountable, support real remediation, and protect the streams, wells, and watersheds our families depend on.
5. Protecting Our Democracy
Our freedoms depend on fair elections, the rule of law, and leaders who tell the truth. I’ll defend every eligible citizen’s right to vote, support transparent and accountable government, and reject the politics of chaos and division — no matter which side it comes from.
The contrast
A different way to represent District 178
Voters across the political spectrum are tired of the same old approach. Here’s how Monica’s steady, evidence-based leadership compares.
| On the issues | The status quo | Monica’s approach |
|---|---|---|
| Public schools | Underfunding and finger-pointing | ✓ Fair, predictable funding so every child succeeds |
| Property taxes | Rising bills, no real relief | ✓ Commonsense relief tied to fixing school funding |
| Healthcare | Costs climb, families squeezed | ✓ Lower costs and protected access for all ages |
| Clean water | Slow response to PFAS | ✓ Accountability for polluters and real cleanup |
| Tone | Chaos and division | ✓ Facts, integrity, and listening first |
