Theresa Sciulli Colaizzi, Dave Fawcett, Sara Innamorato, Michael Lamb, Will Parker and John Weinstein are vying to replace Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald.
A candidate running for County Executive intends to establish a program to provide free community college tuition to those who graduate from high schools in the county. Michael Lamb says he would use philanthropic support and the Allegheny Regional Asset District funds to fund the program. He says he would model it after the Pittsburgh Promise, a scholarship fund for eligible Pittsburgh Public Schools graduates.
