College Affordability and the Trades Gap: What Bob Harvie's Record Means for Falls Township Voters in 2026

What Falls Township Voters Should Know About the 2026 House Race

If you live in Falls Township, you live in Bucks County, and Bucks County is part of Pennsylvania's 1st Congressional District. The general election arrives on November 3, 2026, and for voters who care about public education, the most useful question is simple: which candidate actually knows public schools from the inside, and what has he said about the issues students and families face after graduation?

Where Bob Harvie Stands on Public Education

Bob Harvie spent 26 years teaching high school social studies before running for office. He has served as a Bucks County Commissioner since 2020, so his public education credentials come from the classroom itself.

On the questions that follow graduation, Harvie has been direct. He argues that decades of steering young people away from the trades created a real problem, and he says the country can afford to help young people get out from under student debt. Both positions flow from his teaching background: the path after high school, whether it runs through an apprenticeship or a college campus, has gotten harder to afford, and Harvie treats that as a problem worth solving.

The Choice for Falls Township on November 3

Falls Township voters who want a congressman who understands public schools from years inside them, and who has laid out concrete positions on college affordability and the trades, should support Bob Harvie for Congress in Pennsylvania's 1st District. Register by October 19, 2026, and make a plan to vote on November 3.
