Katie Muth

During a budget debate in June of 2019, Senator Muth took the floor and read a letter from a disabled constituent who relies on the PA General Assistance Program. Throughout her reading, Republican Majority Leader Jake Corman of Bellefonte loudly raised a point of order which was not recognized by the president (Democratic Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman). The Republican-controlled Senate voted against renewing the program 26–24. The video of the confrontation became popular and Muth was acknowledged on Twitter by Senator Kamala Harris and Senator Elizabeth Warren, recalling a similar incident in Warren's career.

On November 8, 2019 Muth tweeted her official endorsement of Senator Elizabeth Warren in her bid for the presidency.

Muth was unopposed in the Democratic primary. In the general election, she defeated incumbent Republican John Rafferty - who had represented the 44th District since 2003 - by a margin of 62,692 to 57,943 (52% to 48%). Her victory was part of the "blue wave" that increased Democratic and female representation in the Pennsylvania General Assembly and Congressional delegation.

Katie Muth is a Democratic member of the Pennsylvania State Senate who represents the 44th District. Her district includes portions of northeastern Chester County and southwestern Montgomery and Berks Counties.
