“Even before Liz began her service as our State Representative, she was already a dedicated child advocate with a consistent record of standing up for the most vulnerable children across Montgomery County.” (Campaign website)
“Gun violence . Gun deaths are now the leading cause of death for children in America. In our country, 1.7 million children live in a home with at least one loaded, unlocked firearm. Despite the dangers associated with firearms that are not properly stored, 54% of firearm owners admitted that they do not safely store all their firearms and no safe storage laws currently exist in Pennsylvania.” (Campaign website)
“LGBTQIA+ rights . All people deserve to feel safe and secure within their community. It has been 65 years since our law protecting people from discrimination has been updated – and discrimination by sexual orientation is still not included. We must finally pass the PA Fairness Act to protect all Pennsylvanians regardless of age, ancestry, color, disability, gender identity and expression, national origin, race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation.” (Campaign website)
