Senator Dawn Keefer Rejects Governor Shapiroโ€™s โ€œLightning Planโ€as Costly Overreach

Overregulation is hurting PA jobs. Nonunion apprenticeship programs must follow a strict 4:1 supervisor-to-apprentice ratio, while unions set their own rules. 

My Apprenticeship Ratio Standards bill creates a fair, risk-based standard that eases the burden on small businesses. See link in bio to learn more.

Meet Senator Keefer

Dawn Keefer has been a champion of right-sizing government and reining in government regulation during her time in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives from 2017-2024, and since her election to the state Senate in November 2024. As State Representative of the 92nd legislative district in Northern York County, Keefer cut her legislative teeth during her first year in office, developing a non-taxing solution to balance a state budget that included $1.5 billion more in spending than in projected revenues.
