About Mike Waltner
As
a community organizer and Erie native, Mike Waltner has faced many of
the hardships facing the people of Northwest Pennsylvania. He
does not have health care because he can not afford it, he worries
about how he and his wife will pay for their new-born daughter’s
college education, and his mother still works the graveyard shift at a
gas station because she can not afford to retire. His
personal experience and professional background, helping ordinary
Americans meet the extraordinary challenges that they face every day,
make him a new type of leader to represent the people of his district
and bring positive change to Washington.
