Meet Rachel

Rachel was born and raised in Pottsville, Pennsylvania, and is a proud graduate of Pottsville Area High School.

She has spent her career in public service. She started out working for her Congressman, Tim Holden, and went on to serve in the U.S. State Department, the U.S. Senate, and the White House, where she was Chief of Staff for the Office of Management and Budget. So she knows how the federal government works – and how it doesn’t.

Rachel moved home after her mom was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease so she could be closer to her family, which has lived in Berks and Schuylkill counties for 10 generations, working as coal miners and farmers, union workers and small business owners, nurses and church leaders. The daughter of a pastor and a nurse, Rachel lives in southern Schuylkill County with her husband and their dog. 

Rachel is focused on fixing our health care, lowering the cost of living, and keeping our promises to veterans and farmers. Her campaign will hold Dan Meuser accountable for his votes to take away health care from tens of thousands of district residents while doubling his own wealth since taking office.
