The cost of living is squeezing families. Development is happening without transparency. Services are getting worse, while taxes keep going up. Meanwhile, insiders and political donors keep getting what they want while the rest of us wait for answers that never come. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Meet Shala Pascucci

“The system meant to serve us has become too bloated, too political, and too disconnected from our everyday lives. I’m running because I believe the people of District 13 deserve better and because I’ve lived the same frustrations you have: as a mom, a small business owner, and a school board trustee in Kings Park. Over the years, I’ve learned that people want three things from their leaders: to be heard, to be treated with respect, and to see real results. That’s what I will bring to the table.”

“This town has been good to so many of us — but the balance is slipping. Taxes go up, but services lag behind. Budgets are confusing. And overdevelopment keeps getting pushed through, even when neighbors say no.

"I’m running because I believe Suffolk County can work better — for everyone.”

Shala Pascucci is a School Board Trustee, mom, and former teacher running to bring common-sense leadership to Suffolk County with a focus on clean water, smart development, and affordability.

About SHALA

What Neighbors Are Saying About SHALA

“Shala’s just always around—in a good way. I’ve seen her at so many school events and local meetings over the years, and she’s not just there to be seen. She listens, pays attention, and actually does something with what she hears. You can tell she really cares about the community.”

Alexa G.

Kings Park Resident

"I don’t usually vote Democrat, but Shala’s different. She listens. She doesn’t talk down to people who disagree with her, and she actually works to find common ground. I may not agree with her on everything, but I know she’ll do the work, and do it for the right reasons."

Joe T.

Kings Park resident & lifelong Republican

What stood out to me about Shala was how approachable and genuine she is. I met her at Smithtown Day, and she actually took the time to listen — not just nod and move on. She’s thoughtful, she asks the right questions, and you can tell she really cares about getting things done the right way.”
