Political newcomer Bhavini Patel to challenge Summer Lee

Political newcomer Bhavini Patel will challenge Summer Lee in the Democratic primary election April 23.


“I think that being present is a big part of being able to deliver for the community and arguably I think that is something that we don’t have right now,” she said.


Lee is especially vulnerable this cycle. We have to make sure Bhavini Patel has everything she needs.

Patel said if elected she will fight to bring more federal dollars to the region and work to address growing challenges within the district like gun violence, mental and reproductive health, small business growth, and vocational training for students.


“That kind of money can catalyze an entire economy and create jobs, good-paying jobs. Bringing people in and giving everybody a sense that they can be heard,” Patel said.


She has been recognized as 30 Under 30 by the Pittsburgh Business Times, 40 Under 40 by Pittsburgh Magazine, and a finalist for the ATHENA Young Professional Award.
