HARRISBURG, Sept. 30 – Today, state Rep. Andre D. Carroll, D-Phila., was sworn in to serve as state representative for Pennsylvania’s 201st Legislative District, located in Northwest Philadelphia and encompassing the neighborhoods of Germantown, Logan and West Oak Lane.

Carroll was elected to office when he won a special election on Sept. 17, and he now has officially taken office.

“I am beyond blessed for this opportunity to serve as state representative for the community I grew up in,” Carroll said.  “I’m ready to hit the ground running with providing my constituents state government-related services and addressing key issues affecting Northwest Philadelphia and many communities across Pennsylvania.”

Carroll said that the key issues he looks to address include criminal justice, health care, education, environmental justice, workers’ rights and housing. 

“For far too long, communities like mine have been neglected and in return greatly affected by these issues,” Carroll said. “I personally have been affected by many of these issues and I am committed to working tirelessly so they can be resolved and Northwest Philadelphians, and all Pennsylvanians, can have a greater quality of life.”
