Carrie Delrosso

Career before politics From 1996 to 2006, DelRosso worked as an insurance specialist for the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and currently runs a public relations company. She was hired by the Riverview School District as a public relations consultant in 2016, and left that position at the end of 2019, citing her other PR roles for the Penn Hills, Verona, and Plum school districts.

Political career In 2017, DelRosso was elected to serve on the Oakmont Borough Council and was sworn in on January 2, 2018. In November 2020, she won the election to represent Pennsylvania's 33rd House district, beating then-Pennsylvania House Minority Leader Frank Dermody 51% to 49%.

Following redistricting of the state House maps, DelRosso would have been unable to run again in the 33rd district. On February 2, 2022, DelRosso announced she would be seeking the Republican nomination for Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania in the 2022 election. She ran televised advertisements statewide to gain recognition and later won the nomination with 25.66% of the vote. Despite not being Mastriano's preferred candidate, DelRosso said she would work with Mastriano on initiatives such as election integrity, school choice, and energy policy. She and Mastriano ran against the Democratic nominees for governor and lieutenant governor, Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro and Pennsylvania State Representative Austin Davis, respectively, and lost on November 8. Following the election loss, DelRosso registered as a lobbyist for the law firm Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney PC.

In July 2023, Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey nominated DelRosso to a seat on the city's newly created infrastructure commission. However, Gainey pulled DelRosso's nomination after members of the Pittsburgh City Council expressed reservations over DelRosso's past policy positions, including a bill vetoed by Governor Tom Wolf that would have prohibited transgender college athletes from competing in the sport of their gender identity.

Political positions DelRosso has said she is "anti-establishment". She opposed mandates related to the COVID-19 pandemic. DelRosso criticized the 2021 United States Capitol attack for its lawlessness and violence.
