Pennsylvania United

PA United and our chapters are on our way to Harrisburg to demand our state legislators take action against the growing affordability crisis! We've heard from hundreds of people struggling to make ends meet across the state, and it's time our elected officials take the steps needed to relieve the financial strain from working Pennsylvanians.

Our students shouldn't have to worry about financial strains while building a better future for themselves.
