Thank You from Phyllis I. Bennett:

To all of you who encouraged me or worked on my campaign in any capacity during my quest for elected office in the 106th Legislative District, thank you so much.

Remember Our Troups on Nov. 11th Remember Our Troops Every Day

In this busy world, it is wonderful that some people still have the passion to take time for others; to give from the heart. I am extremely grateful to all for the hard work that was put forth in an effort to improve the representation in our district.

In light of the national political climate, we all knew it would be particularly challenging. Notwithstanding, we fought a good fight and ran an honest campaign. We may have fallen short of our goal, but we were able to put important issues on the agenda. We were able to hold our opponent accountable to his record. Most importantly, we set a standard and laid the building blocks for even greater success in the future.

I am and will be forever grateful to you for sharing your time, talent, and treasury in support of my campaign. I appreciate the prayers and kind words that came forth on a regular basis.

Although the election results may have changed the way you view our political climate, stay involved in the political process and never, never, give up the fight to return our country to better times and prosperity for us all. Only then, can we all make a difference.

Please stay in touch.

Gratefully yours,

Phyllis Irene Bennett

From the desk of Phyllis Bennett
Candidate, PA District 106 - State Representative

As a candidate for the Pennsylvania State Legislature, I believe that you and the many concerned constituents of 106th Legislative District deserve a representative who is committed to
 

Phyllis Bennett with US Senator Bobby Casey (PA)

bringing meaningful improvements on their behalf to the State House in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. As a democrat with proven savvy and passion to lead, I bring twenty nine years of State Government work experience to spearhead infrastructural advancements and other dynamic changes required to create and retain jobs both for the citizens of the 106th and the great State of Pennsylvania. As a reform candidate, I will work hard to grow our state’s economy, stop wasteful spending and end the current culture of abuse of power now prevalent in Harrisburg.

As your representative in Harrisburg, I know that this 106th district represent forward thinking residents and businesses with specific and collective concerns which must be addressed satisfactorily from the outset of my taking office. Prioritizing and paying strict attention to your needs is something I do well! Moreover, I enthusiastically began this campaign with this very end in mind and am personally rewarded when others can see measurable results of my efforts on their behalf.

I am most appreciative and equally overwhelmed by the accelerated outpouring of support I have received from you since announcing my campaign for the State Legislature. I am humbled
 

Phyllis Bennett with Lt. Governor Catherine Baker Knoll

Please know that you have my commitment and promise that I will address any needed actions and improvements on your behalf in a manner that is conducive to transparency and full disclosure.

Sincerely submitted,
