Priorities

Tiffany knows what it's like to work multiple jobs and still fall short on rent. She's lived the paycheck-to-paycheck reality that too many Philadelphia families face every single day.

The cost of living keeps rising, but wages haven't kept up. Working families are stretched to the breaking point—choosing between groceries and gas, between childcare and keeping the lights on. That's not a failure of hard work. That's a failure of leadership.

In Harrisburg, Tiffany will fight to change that.

What Tiffany Will Do:

• Fight for wages that actually match the cost of living—not just a minimum wage increase, but real, sustainable pay for working families
• Introduce legislation to strengthen overtime protections and close loopholes that let employers misclassify workers
• Push for paid family and medical leave so no one has to choose between caring for a sick child and losing a paycheck
• Hold big corporations accountable for paying fair wages instead of padding executive bonuses
• Reduce wage gaps and ensure equal pay for equal work

When workers can take care of themselves and their families, communities are stronger, healthier, and safer. Tiffany will never stop fighting for the working people of Philadelphia.

Tiffany sat in freezing classrooms as a kid. She watched friends fall through the cracks of a system that had already given up on them. She had to fight just to survive each school day—and she refuses to let another generation of Philadelphia children go through the same thing.

Our public schools are in crisis. Enrollment is dropping because parents have lost trust. Facilities are crumbling. And too many kids are leaving school without the skills they need to succeed.

Tiffany believes every child in Philadelphia deserves a quality education in a safe, healthy environment—no matter their zip code.

What Tiffany Will Do:

• Fight for adequate funding to keep neighborhood schools open and thriving
• Demand accountability for how school budgets are spent—every dollar should reach the classroom
• Create transparent reporting systems to identify and fix safety hazards in school buildings
• Push for curriculum improvements that actually prepare students for the future
• Support teachers with the resources they need to do their jobs

Our children are not a line item to be cut. They are our future. Tiffany will fight for schools that parents can trust and kids can thrive in.

Across Philadelphia, longtime residents—especially seniors on fixed incomes—are being taxed out of the neighborhoods they helped build. Property values go up, taxes go up, and suddenly the home your family has owned for decades becomes unaffordable.

This is not progress. This is displacement.

Tiffany has watched gentrification change the face of Philadelphia communities. She's seen families forced to sell and move away from the streets where they grew up, where their kids go to school, where their church has been for generations. Enough is enough.

What Tiffany Will Do:

• Fight for alternative revenue sources to reduce the property tax burden on homeowners
• Demand fair and accurate property assessments—no more inflated valuations that crush working families
• Expand access to property tax relief programs for seniors, low-income residents, and longtime homeowners
• Protect legacy residents from being pushed out by rising costs in gentrifying neighborhoods
• Ensure that community development benefits the people already living there—not just developers

The American dream of homeownership shouldn't turn into a nightmare. Tiffany will protect the people who built these neighborhoods and make sure they can stay.
