HARRISBURG, Jan. 3 – State Rep. Justin Fleming took the oath of office today in the state Capitol to begin his first term representing the 105th Legislative District in Dauphin County.

The noon swearing-in ceremony marked the beginning of the 2023-24 session of the Pennsylvania House.

Fleming has spent nearly 18 years in and around state government as a public servant and as an advocate to expand mental health care and provide more resources for children in Pennsylvania. Fleming has also served as Susquehanna Township commissioner for the 8th Ward.

“I’m looking forward to taking on the challenges of the new year and new session,” Fleming said. “It’s time that the PA House reflects the will and voice of the people. I’m looking forward to joining my colleagues and working to better the state for all.”
