State Rep. Tina Davis Announces Re-Election Bid
Davis will run in the April 23 primary election to represent the 141st Legislative District.
LEVITTOWN, PA —Citing her “legislative accomplishments including passing the child and dependent care tax credit out of the House” State Representative Tina M. Davis announced Tuesday that she will seek re-election in the 141st Legislative District.
“I am proud and honored to work for the families of Lower Bucks County,” the Democrat said. “I will continue to fight for better pay, better schools, and a secure retirement so seniors aren’t forced out of their homes due to increasing property taxes.”
The 141st Legislative District includes Bristol Township, Bristol Borough, Hulmeville, Penndel, and part of Middletown Township.
