Joshua Caltagirone is a democratic candidate running for Pennsylvania state representative in the 99th district. Born in Reading, PA a son of two struggling parents and sibling to four, Joshua always knew hard work and determination was key to succeeding. Being placed in many foster homes, moving in and out of several homeless shelters all while having witnessed loved one's fighting to win and some lose battles of addiction. Joshua continued to maintain an optimistic and hardworking outlook on life. Joshua has worked manual labor jobs since his youth and still does to this day. In high school he studied masonry at BCTC and went on to obtain a job for the state of Pennsylvania at Wernersville state hospital as a utility plant operator. As a state employee he quickly learned many other skills such as repairing machinery, MIG TIG and stick welding, water chemistry and other Maintenace related skills. Today Joshua works as a project supervisor for a notable family-owned business. His passion for politics stemmed from debates on job sites and family involvement in local politics. One major influence was Joshua's great uncle Thomas Caltagirone, the former state rep in the 127th district. Joshua plans to have many positive impacts on his community as his uncle did over his 44 years in office.
  • Providing top notch constituent services where someone will always answer your call.
  • Create and maintain good paying jobs through economic development plans and infrastructure improvements.
  • Lowering and or eliminating property taxes in ways that do not hurt the already struggling middle class.
Joshua is personally passionate about education. Ensuring that our children and schools have the proper tools and resources to be successful is a key component to any successful community.
