As Pennsylvania’s State Treasurer, businesswoman and retired U.S. Army Reserve Colonel Stacy Garrity is focused on transparency, cutting waste and fees, returning more than $5 billion in unclaimed property to its rightful owners, and making education affordable for Pennsylvanians.

In the Army Reserve, she served three overseas deployments. As a businesswoman, she worked as one of the first two female vice-presidents at Global Tungsten & Powders in Towanda, the largest tungsten smelter in the western world.

Treasurer Garrity is a fiscal watchdog, protecting more than $170 billion in state assets, returning more than $1 billion worth of unclaimed property to the rightful owners, and managing the PA 529 College & Career Savings Program, the PA ABLE Savings Program, and the INVEST program for local government agencies and nonprofits. She has cut fees for both PA 529 and PA ABLE, saving account owners nearly $17 million.
