City & State Pennsylvania

T’S NO SECRET – there’s a lot of drama in Pennsylvania politics. With all the he-said-shesaid and talk about who likes who – it almost feels like high school. Whether it’s candidates slinging attack ads at each other or Harrisburg lawmakers going back and forth in the Capitol, there are plenty of juicy rumors swirling around. With that in mind, we thought it was a good time to hand out superlatives for this year’s class at Harrisburg High. Do you agree with these choices or does it look like just another popularity contest? Tell us what you think on Twitter @CityandStatePA.

PA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
SESSION SUPERLATIVES We’re turning the state Capitol into Harrisburg High to see who would get honored in City & State’s yearbook.

CUTEST/ MOST UNLIKELY COUPLE State Reps. Greg Rothman & Stephen Kinsey
They’re not a couple you’d normally see in a yearbook, but state Reps. Greg Rothman and Stephen Kinsey deserve kudos for their unlikely legislative relationship. Rothman, a Republican from Cumberland County, and Kinsey, a Democrat from Philadelphia County, are a great example of lawmakers reaching across the aisle. The two have worked together on multiple issues, including the creation of a bipartisan caucus for this legislative session, which looks to provide a channel for civil discussion among lawmakers.
