Shannon Welsh, a lifelong resident of Clarksburg, West Virginia, is running for West Virginia House of Delegates District 70, bringing extensive experience across real estate, finance, medical, and tech industries to her campaign. Welsh’s background has trained her to help people make major decisions with confidence and to bring data-driven, steady judgment to policy discussions. She is running to work hard for her constituents, listening first and using her professional expertise to understand what's really happening at the kitchen table, on the job site, and in the neighborhood before carrying that understanding to Charleston.

Welsh will work to support reproductive healthcare, respecting personal autonomy and medical privacy while expanding access to reproductive healthcare. She advocates for economic stability for women, particularly those balancing work, caregiving, and financial pressure. She is committed to tackling rising economic pressures, including job availability and wage stability, as well as housing challenges facing District 70 families. Guided by the principle that if it helps working people, she'll stand for it, Welsh also supports fair pay for honest work, strong backing for unions, and cutting the red tape that slows down small businesses and job growth — pledging to work with legislators on both sides of the aisle to deliver real results for West Virginia House of Delegates, District 70.
