Candidate Connection

Christa Caceres participated in Ballotpedia's candidate survey on April 2, 2018. The survey questions appear in bold, and Christa Caceres's responses follow below.[1]

What would be your top three priorities, if elected?

“ 1) Give the people of PA a living wage. $7.25 and hour is for babysitters, but hard working adults with families.

2) Develop recurring review for PA’s budget with a severance tax and a “Fair Tax”
3) Require corporations to pay their fair share to increase school funding and lower the corporate tax rate-allowing small businesses to increase their workers’ wages and improve the quality of life across the state.[2][3]

”

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about? Why?

“ Education-Our children are our future and it’s our responsibility to ensure they have the best start possible. Healthcare is a right and should be enjoyed by all Americans. We need courageous leadership in Harrisburg to ensure our citizens can truly enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and that starts with healthy residents.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many[3] ”

Ballotpedia also asked the candidate a series of optional questions. Christa Caceres answered the following:

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

“ Empathy-You cannot serve the people without placing yourself into their shoes. Willingness to Compromise-Elected officials won’t agree on everything, but to do the work of the people you must be willing to compromise where appropriate. The people expect their leaders to produce meaningful results.[3] ”
What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?
“ I am passionate about my community, and I understand and respect their concerns. I am running to be their public servant, and I will make courageous decisions that will improve their quality of life. That’s why they place us in office, and that’s exactly what I’ll do as State Representative.[3] ”
What was the last song that got stuck in your head?
“ “The Middle” by Zedd[3] ”
