Pennsylvania – District 12
Summer Lee is a lifelong resident of southwest Pennsylvania. Before arriving in Congress in 2022, Summer was a state legislator and social justice organizer, so she has spent years fighting pollution in Allegheny County. Food & Water Action helped her stop a fracking well in her hometown of Braddock, PA and supported her efforts to end fossil fuel handouts.
In Congress, she has fought to end fracking, pass a Green New Deal, provide clean energy jobs, and to ensure clean air and water for all, especially marginalized communities.
