Perry A. Stambaugh (born March 8, 1960) is a Republican member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, District 86. He first took office following the 2020 Pennsylvania House of Representatives election.[2][3]
Stambaugh graduated from Penn State University and operates a family farm in Green Park, Pennsylvania, Perry County. A lifetime member of the National Rifle Association, he supports measures that will greatly increase rural residents’ access to high-speed Internet service as well as state constitutional reforms, such as electing state appellate judges on a district (not statewide) basis and eliminating property taxes to fund schools.[4][5] He also backs state legislative and congressional term limits.[6]
Career[]
Before running for the state House, Stambaugh spent most of his nearly 40-year professional career as a rural and agricultural magazine editor on local, statewide, and national levels—notably with the former Pennsylvania Farmer magazine (now American Agriculturist); Penn Lines magazine, published by the Pennsylvania Rural Electric Association; and RE Magazine, produced by the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association.[7]
