The discussion will be moderated by Neil Makhija, an election law professor and ACS student alumnus. Professor Makhija will be leading the conversation and engaging with Rep. Scanlon on a range of topics related to Pennsylvania politics and public service.
Overall, this promises to be an insightful and engaging event for anyone interested in the future of Pennsylvania politics and public service. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn from Rep. Scanlon and engage in a meaningful discussion on these important issues.
