I, Dr. Anju Singh, am honored to announce my candidacy for State Representative in PA District 106. I am a single mother, a legal immigrant, a small business owner, a tutor, a professor, and, most importantly, a tax-paying constituent just like you.

This is where it gets tricky. The higer the pay for child care providers, which I support, will then also increase the cost of that care. It's a catch 20 situation and we need to think in more creative ways to support our families and children. Yes. I support living wages for anyone working a full-time job.
As for the situation with child care cost/expense, I mentioned earlier, we need to think in more creative ways to support our families and children.

What do you see as the most pressing issues facing residents of your district, and how would you address them?
The skyrocketing cost of living, with frozen minimum wages, is making life unaffordable for the average constituent. Affordable housing for owners and renters will be among my top priorities. Also, providing targeted tax relief and reducing energy costs while increasing minimum wages will significantly help residents make ends meet.

People’s concerns around vaccines are often based on misinformation or lack of education. Therefore public education and awarness on how vaccines work, why sometimes it may appear that they don’t work and transperancy around posible side effects will hopefully increase vaccination rates. Also, emphasising the importance of herd immunity to protect those who are not able get vaccinated due to other health conditions is important to communicate.

As a policy maker I would introduce, support, co-sponsor legislation that encourages vaccination and make access to health care affordable.

As for the situation with child care cost/expense, I mentioned earlier, we need to think in more creative ways to support our families and children. Every parent/family with little children should have access to affordable, safe, healthy and good quality child care. Not just the rich.

Question 4
Do you believe that making child care more accessible and affordable will help businesses find more qualified workers?

Anju Singh
"YES. In most households mothers usually take time off work to recover from childbirth and to care for their infant. Due to increased child care cost, frequent child illness from introduction into daycare and exposure to other children, it is often the mother who takes additional time off work. This denies the mother from potential professional growth and denies the community her professional skills. Paid maternity leave, affordable childcare will partially lower these barriers."

Supports access to affordable, safe, healthy, high-quality child care for all families with young children.

Supports paid maternity leave and affordable child care to reduce barriers to parents' professional advancement.

Education

I support responsible development with enforceable safeguards: early public notice, open hearings, independent studies of energy, water, traffic, noise, and environmental impacts, appropriate setbacks from homes and schools, emergency planning, and binding community-benefit agreements. Developers—not ratepayers—should cover the infrastructure their projects require, conserve water, reduce noise and emissions, and provide lasting local benefits rather than short-term promises.

Q1 PFAS chemicals are widely used in consumer products but have raised health concerns due to their persistence in the environment and humans, and some Pennsylvanian legislators are considering restrictions on its use, such as in House Bill 2145. Should Pennsylvania restrict PFAS in consumer products? What scientific evidence would you use to inform your decision?

Public Health
Yes, Pennsylvania (and all other states/countries) should restrict PFAS in consumer products. The EPA provides resources to studies done that found a close association of PFAS with harmful health effects on humans like cancer, infertility, gestational hypertension, decreased immunity, developmental delays, etc.

In Pennsylvania, Governor Josh Shapario has set up some guard rails for data center development and I currently support his plan. The Governor’s Responsible Infrastructure Development (GRID) standards establish best practices that data Centers must comply with to receive support from the Commonwealth. These standards are the benchmark for data center developers to demonstrate that they are doing right by Pennsylvania communities.

They focus on four key areas: Energy Affordability, Transparency and Community Engagement, Workforce and economic development and Environmental Protection. Data centers need to generate their own energy, preferable from renewable sources and provide evidence of community benefits, like job opportunities.

Supports development safeguards, including public notice, hearings, independent impact studies, setbacks, emergency planning, and binding community-benefit agreements.

Supports restricting per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in consumer products.

Supports requiring data centers to generate their own energy, preferably from renewable sources, and demonstrate community benefits such as job opportunities.

Three Mile Island Emergency Preparedness

With the proposed restart of the facility formerly known as Three Mile Island, our community needs more than assurances—we need a feasible, publicly understood, and regularly tested emergency evacuation plan before operations resume. That plan must identify clear evacuation routes and backup routes, account for traffic bottlenecks, provide accessible transportation for seniors, people with disabilities, residents without vehicles, schoolchildren, hospital patients, and nursing-home residents, and establish reliable multilingual alerts, reception centers, sheltering guidance, family-reunification procedures, and plans for pets and livestock.

State, county, municipal, federal, and plant officials should conduct full-scale drills, publish the results, correct any weaknesses, and prove that the plan can work under real-world conditions.

Public Safety

What changes, if any, would you support to enable better access, ensure security, and support the processes of our elections?
Overall, the elections in PA are currently safe, secure, and mail-in ballot makes them easier to access for those unable to vote at polling booths. Voter registration is secure, and only legally registered voters are allowed to vote at polling booths. Any outdated voting machines in PA, which lack verifiable paper records, are susceptible to hacking and manipulation; therefore need to be updated. The current administration's attempts to suppress certain subpopulations of voters and threats of the presence of ICE at polling places are a concern. Efforts must be made to make sure that voters and poll workers feel safe on election day, and no one is intimidated or threatened in any way.

Supports mail-in ballots as an accessible voting option and says Pennsylvania elections are safe and secure.

Supports updating outdated voting machines that lack verifiable paper records.

Calls for measures to ensure voters and poll workers are safe from intimidation and threats on Election Day.
