Donna Scheuren is an American politician who currently serves as the Republican Representative to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives's 147th district.[1]
Early life
[edit]Scheuren attended the Cherokee High School in Marlton, New Jersey, graduating in 1987. She attended The College of New Jersey graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration as part of their class of 1991. Prior to her election she worked as a Manufacturer's Representative.[1] She moved to Lower Salford Township in 1996, shortly after marrying her husband, Dave Scheuren, who personally built their house.[2]
Political career
[edit]Scheuren first became involved in politics when she became a member of the Souderton Area School Board and serve for three terms. She was also the Township supervisor for Lower Salford Township, and served on their sewer authority. She would run for House on a pro-Business and pro-Constitution platform advocating government deregulation, lowering of taxes, and building jobs. She would defeat Democrat, Alexandra Wisser, a homemaker, in the general election.[3] There was serious doubts if the Republican party could hold onto the 147th district, due to it being rezoned to include more Democratic neighborhoods. Despite this, Scheuren defeated Wisser with 17,667 votes to 14,626.[4][5][2]
Donna Scheuren (R-Montgomery) recently held a press conference regarding House Bill 927, which would amend the Pennsylvania Constitution to prohibit the issuance of driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants.
