Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon has dedicated her career to serving the most
vulnerable — first as a lawyer and now in Congress. She was first sworn
into the U.S. House of Representatives on November 13, 2018 following a
special election, and currently represents Pennsylvania’s 5th
Congressional District. 

Congresswoman Scanlon’s legislative priorities include voting rights, access to
justice, education, supporting economic growth for her region, common
sense gun safety, and ending hunger. All of these priorities align with
Congresswoman Scanlon’s main goal as an elected official: protecting and
improving the lives of America’s children, families, veterans, and
seniors. Join the Center for Peace and Global Citizenship and
Congresswoman Scanlon for a discussion of the ways in which advancing
positive social change frequently involves identifying, engaging, and
collaborating with unexpected allies.
