Austin Davis is the 35th Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania and the first Black person to hold the office in the Commonwealth’s history. Raised in the Mon Valley by a hairdresser and a union bus driver, he is a first-generation college graduate of the University of Pittsburgh. His career in public service includes serving in Allegheny County government and representing the 35th District in the PA House, where he led the Allegheny County House Democratic Delegation. Currently the nation’s youngest sitting Lieutenant Governor, he presides over the state Senate and chairs several key state councils, including the Board of Pardons and the Commission on Crime and Delinquency. He and his wife, Blayre, reside in western Pennsylvania with their daughter.
“I want to be clear: Even if you don’t use Medicaid or SNAP, these cuts will impact you and your family,” said Davis.
Davis said he wants to help “rebuild the Democratic brand.”
