Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Sydney Hovis (D)

Our current legislators have had too much power for too long— they are selling out the best interests of We The People for their personal benefit.

We must address the revitalization and redevelopment needs of the region or our boroughs and townships will continue to have less funds necessary to survive.

I will always protect all of our Constitutional rights, liberties, and resources.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Sydney Hovis (D)

Holding my bachelor’s in political science, I can say that there is not one area of governance that is better or more important than another. Rather, I am passionate about achieving the best mix of policies to address the challenges and provide for the needs of the people. It is not only about balancing a budget, but ensuring that it is effective, efficient, and fair.
