Martina White - (INCUMBENT) PA 170th House District
“From the Northeast. For the Northeast.” isn’t a campaign slogan for Martina, it’s who she is through and through.
Growing up in the Northeast, Martina learned early the values that run through the people of our community: hard work, helping others and never giving up.
Martina has carried these Northeast values with her throughout her life – being the first member of her immediate family to graduate from college, playing college athletics, and into the business world where she worked in the financial industry advising local families and small business owners on how to accomplish their financial goals. Elected by her neighbors to serve as State Representative, she brings those same values to Harrisburg to fight for us.
As State Representative, Martina is forging a new path of leadership – one that focuses on the issues WE care about instead of partisan rancor. The result is a bipartisan record of accomplishments when it comes to standing up for the people of Northeast Philadelphia. This record – and her proven ability to bring people together – is what has earned her the consistent endorsement of groups across the political spectrum: from organized labor to small business to law enforcement.
