"Both parties frequently talk about reducing polarization, increasing transparency, and putting voters first, but they continue to support partisan gerrymandering, closed primary systems, and political structures that protect incumbents over competition."

"There is a reason the Forward Party affiliates with Forward Democrats and Forward Republicans as well as independents. Generally, the difference is to hold people accountable to these values. The values are first and foremost."

— Forward Independent Commissioner Ron Beitler describing the values in the Forward candidate pledge:

“Your state representative should answer to the people in our communities—not to party leadership….I answer to every corner of this district—not just a base.

If elected, I'll focus on practical solutions: school funding tied to student need, not ZIP codes; housing policy that gives seniors stability and first-time buyers a real shot; and genuine transparency so residents can weigh in before votes are cast.

You don't have to abandon what you believe to be part of this. You just have to be willing to put your neighbor before your party. Reach out. Let’s talk. “

Before politics got this loud, we were just neighbors.

Thank you The Morning Call for reporting on the spread of the Forward movement in PA!

It's a movement that's larger than one party. We're happy to welcome Forward Independents, Forward Republicans, and Forward Democrats. (They don't have to be "centrists" either. Their ideas just need to be data-driven, promoted through constructive dialogue across party lines, and implemented according to the rule of law.)

Our goals are {1} promoting election reforms, like ranked-choice voting, to make the system work better for everyone, and {2} recruiting principled candidates to produce better outcomes for their constituents.

Lehigh County Commissioner Ron W. Beitler, who changed his political party from Republican to independent in February, announced his affiliation Friday with the Forward Party. https://mrf.lu/-wSM
