Meet Ce-Ce
​

Ce-Ce Gerlach has been fighting with and for working families in the Lehigh Valley for more than two decades. Ce-Ce has dedicated her life to public service—as an educator, community organizer, and elected official—always putting people first.
Ce-Ce always stands with those who are too often left behind. She works to expand opportunities for young people, fight for affordable housing, protect public education, and uplift workers’ rights. Her commitment is rooted in lived experience and a deep belief that government should serve everyday people, not corporate special interests.
On Allentown City Council, Ce-Ce is a voice for equity and justice—pushing for investments in neighborhoods, transparency in government, and policies that make our community more fair, safe, and inclusive. She has built coalitions across the Lehigh Valley and the State to advance progressive causes, always listening to residents and amplifying their voices.
Now, Ce-Ce is running for State Representative to bring that same people-first leadership to Harrisburg. She will fight to fully fund our public schools, make childcare and healthcare affordable, protect our environment, defend democracy, and ensure every person in Allentown and Salisbury Township has the chance to thrive.
Ce-Ce Gerlach is not a typical politician—she’s a community leader, legislator and a fighter for justice. She’s running to build a Pennsylvania where everyone can live with dignity, opportunity, and hope.
​
During times like these we need a bold, unapologetic leader in Harrisburg who is ready to fight and knows how to get stuff done.
