Through his involvement in Whitehall, Stephens understands the dynamics in the Whitehall-Coplay community. If elected, he is committed to handle the task of protecting the Whitehall-Coplay community and its citizens.

“I will be fair and neutral in handling issues, but also determined to make sure that offenders who break the law in the Whitehall-Coplay area are punished appropriately and taken off the streets,” Stephens said.
