Guy Ciarrocchi--Bio

Guy is the Chief of Staff for Congressman Jim Gerlach (now on leave without pay, to campaign for Representative). In that role he manages a 15-member staff and oversees a $1.4 million operating budget – all while identifying local needs and performing vital constituent services. It is this executive management experience, combined with his knowledge of local issues that will help make him an effective Representative right away.

Guy served our families as a successful local Supervisor in Tredyffrin Township where he proved his ability to be an independent voice for our families and showed his commitment to fiscal responsibility by never raising property taxes.

A former Deputy Attorney General for Pennsylvania, Guy helped protect our families from violent criminals and as the past local Director for the U.S. Agency of Housing & Urban Development he helped educate consumers against "predatory lenders."

Guy is also the former Executive Director of the State Senate Finance Committee. He knows there are programs that can be cut to save tax dollars and that state government must focus spending on real priorities. Guy has the experience to do it – to bring about fiscal sanity.

Most importantly, Guy is a husband, father to three growing children, and a passionate volunteer. From coaching softball, baseball, and soccer, to serving on his township's Environmental Advisory Council and his county's Children Youth & Families Advisory Board, Guy has a history of fighting for our children, our environment, and our local needs.

Ciarrocchi Knocks On Over 11,700 Doors…And Counting

Reaches voters in every precinct of the 157th District

Guy Ciarrocchi today announced that he has knocked on more than 11,700 doors across the 157^th State House District and has no plans on stopping until Election Day.

Ciarrocchi has visited homes and met with voters in all 39 precincts in the 157th District, which is spread out across five municipalities and two counties. After taking unpaid leave from his position as Chief of Staff to U.S. Congressman Gerlach, this amazing achievement is further illustration of Ciarrocchi’s 110% commitment to his campaign.

“Guy has been knocking on doors every day of the week, sometimes two to three shifts per day,” stated Ciarrocchi campaign manager Brian McCarthy. “Just as important, Guy has been supported by a dedicated team of local residents who volunteer their time to accompany Guy to introduce him to their neighbors.”

Ciarrocchi has personally visited each of the 11,700 homes, with campaign volunteers adding thousands more that have been contacted by the campaign.

“Visiting and listening to residents across the 157th District has confirmed my belief that the people of Chester and Montgomery Counties want to see an end to partisan political games in Harrisburg and action on real issues,” said Ciarrocchi.

“All across the 157th, people have responded positively to my message of changing the way Harrisburg works to bring fiscal discipline to state government, improve education, support alternative energy and open space preservation, and more,” continued Ciarrocchi.

“I won’t stop knocking on doors until Election Day,” concluded Ciarrocchi. “I just think that to be a great Representative you need to hear from the people you want to represent. That’s what I’m doing.”
