Jobs and the Economy

As your State Representative, task number one is to help the economy by creating more and better jobs. We need to put in place incentives to increase job creation and capital investment. However, in the new economy we also need to focus on new, environmentally friendly, “green collar” jobs. These jobs will help us protect, preserve, and enhance Open Space and strengthen our energy security, while allowing for Smart Growth that will grow our economy while protecting our historical and natural beauty. Green Jobs promote conservation, energy efficiency, and renewable energy – and can’t be outsourced. Green Jobs represent the future our economy here in greater West Chester, across the Commonwealth and Country and around the World.
