Lastly, he worked as director of secondary education at Cornwall-Lebanon School District before retiring.[2]
Political career
Schlegel came out of retirement to run for the 101st district of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives as a Republican following the retirement of longtime representative Frank Ryan. He ran on a campaign of reducing state spending, ensuring election integrity, improving public schools and welfare facilities for senior citizens, as well as protecting Freedom of Speech and the Right to Bear Arms.[2] Additionally, Schlegel received a "favorable" score from the Pennsylvania Pro-Life Federation and supporting repealing PA Act 77, a series of Amendments to the state election code, and proposed having voter-ID be a requirement to vote. He does not support increasing the state minimum wage, since most businesses already pay higher than the minimum wage.[3] Schlegel would handily defeat his Democratic opponent Catherine "Cavi" Miller with 14,014 votes to her 8,483.[4] Schlegel opened his district office in the Lebanon Valley Mall.[5]
