Jennifer L. Jeffries announced her bid for re-election to the office of magisterial district judge in South Union and Menallen townships. Jeffries, of South Union Township, assumed her role at the start of 2016, working judiciously to keep crime off the streets in her jurisdiction. She has dedicated herself to finding balance in treating constituents fairly and with respect, while maintaining positive working relationships with state police, the newly established Menallen Township Police Force, code enforcement agents of both townships, and the Uniontown City Police, who patrol the South Union Township Sheepskin Trail. Jeffriesâs initial campaign also promised to build working relationships with the Uniontown and Laurel Highlands School Districts; she has since been selected as the countyâs magisterial district judge to pilot a child-advocacy program to eliminate truancy in select schools. Jeffries demonstrates her genuine concern for students, in her work to implement recently updated truancy law.
