Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I’m Brad Chambers and I’m running for Pennsylvania’s 41st State House District to represent the working people and families of Columbia Borough, Mountville Borough, East and West Hempfield Townships, and Manor Township in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. I’m proud to call Columbia, Pennsylvania my home.

I’m the oldest of three siblings, raised by a hard-working single mother. I’m a graduate of Millersville University and I work as a Labor Administrator, overseeing Union contracts for a major national transportation company.

In the House, I’ll work to build a Pennsylvania that works for ALL of us, including affordable housing, single-payer healthcare, and fair funding for our public schools.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Affordable Housing:

Quality housing that Lancaster County families can actually afford.Public Education:

Fair funding for our public schools & lower property taxes for homeowners.Affordable & Accessible Healthcare:

Bring single-payer healthcare to PA, lower insurance & prescription costs.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Housing:

Incentivize developers to build more affordable housing units and mixed-income neighborhoods, expand programs to help homeowners such as Whole Home Repairs and PHARE, safeguard tenants' rights and stop unjust evictions.

Education:

I support correcting the funding disparity that currently allows Pennsylvania to pay 10% less into K-12 education than other states, ensuring that Lancaster County public schools get their fair share and reducing reliance on property taxes for homeowners.

Healthcare:

I support bringing single-payer healthcare to PA, direct grant funding for public health needs in our district, and codifying into law the right to make our own healthcare and reproductive choices.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Determination: Work ethic, conviction of purpose, a willingness to go above and beyond, and a commitment to the office and constituents.

Transparency: Politicians must be sincere and clear. Constituents deserve to know that their hard-earned tax dollars are being used responsibly in ways that help real people here in Lancaster County.

Accountability: Politicians must be accessible to constituents, listen to their concerns, and be held accountable for their actions. I will hold regular town hall meetings and keep open communication channels.

Empathy and Compassion: An elected official should be capable of understanding and empathizing with the struggles and concerns of constituents, ensuring that policies are crafted with compassion and consideration for those who may be marginalized or disadvantaged.

What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?

Integrity: I understand the significance of holding public office and recognize the trust bestowed upon elected representatives by the community. I am dedicated to upholding the highest standards of transparency in all my actions, ensuring that the public interest always remains at the forefront of my decision-making.

Tenacity: I consider myself a resilient and determined person. Navigating the complexities of the legislative processes requires a steady approach and I am not easily rattled. Whether advocating for policy changes or tackling long-standing problems, my tenacious spirit ensures that I remain dedicated to the well-being of our district.

Sincerity: I understand the importance of genuine and authentic communication in building trust and fostering positive relationships. As an officeholder, I am committed to being true to the values that guide me, ensuring that sincerity permeates all aspects of my public service.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

The primary responsibility of someone elected to the State House is active, ongoing listening to constituents. This is a continuous, deliberate process that involves understanding and transforming the desires, insights, and needs of the community into actionable policy items. Listening isn't confined to election seasons; it's a persistent commitment to understanding and representing the community's voice in policy decisions.

Courage is another crucial quality for a State Representative. The representative must boldly advocate for the best interests of constituents. This might involve supporting bills with uncertain outcomes to increase the visibility of crucial issues. Courage in representation means standing firm on what is right and ensuring the community's concerns are not just heard, but passionately championed.

Do you believe it’s beneficial to build relationships with other legislators? Please explain your answer.

Yes, I believe it is crucial to build relationships with other legislators and to foster an environment where constructive dialogue can take place. Even when faced with differing opinions or conflicting ideologies, maintaining open lines of communication allows for the exchange of ideas, compromises, and the potential for bipartisan solutions.

Moreover, it builds a culture of mutual respect and understanding within the legislative body. This, in turn, enhances the overall functionality of the institution, creating a more conducive environment for collaboration and problem-solving.

Is there a particular legislator, past or present, whom you want to model yourself after?

Franklin Delano Roosevelt's commitment to addressing the needs of ordinary citizens through the New Deal programs demonstrated a dedication to social and economic justice. His resilience, optimism, and willingness to adapt in the face of adversity are qualities that resonate with me as essential for effective leadership.

Moreover, FDR's emphasis on unity and collaboration, both domestically and internationally, is something I aspire to incorporate into my own approach. In a diverse and dynamic political landscape, the ability to build consensus and work towards common goals is crucial for achieving meaningful and lasting change.

What are your views on financial transparency and government accountability?

Financial transparency is crucial to our democracy and, without it, we cannot truly hold our elected officials accountable to the voters. People have a right to know how their elected officials are spending their tax dollars, who is funding their campaigns, and who holds influence over their decision-making.
