Summer Lynn Lee (born November 26, 1987)[1] is an American politician who is the U.S. representative for Pennsylvania's 12th congressional district since 2023. A member of the Democratic Party, Lee was a member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives for the 34th district from 2019 to 2022.[2] With the support of the local chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA),[3] Lee was the first black woman to represent Southwestern Pennsylvania in the state legislature.[2]
Lee was the Democratic nominee in the 2022 election to represent Pennsylvania's 12th congressional district in the United States House of Representatives. She won the primary by less than 1% of the vote and became the first Black woman from Pennsylvania in the House of Representatives after winning the general election.[4][5]
