Yet again, my House Democratic colleagues and I passed a budget in the PA House. It is time for Senate Republicans to pass the budget on their end. Communities and families across the commonwealth are hurting due to the 100+ day budget impasse. It’s time to get this done.

In 2023, we passed a bill that was later signed into law easing the costs for women suffering from breast cancer. My colleagues and I remain steadfast in our commitment to continually doing more to help survivors and those currently suffering from this horrific disease. #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth

I was proud to join my colleagues at the State Capitol for a rally on the importance of increasing awareness, education and support for breast cancer prevention and treatment.

Together, we stood united in our commitment to building safer neighborhoods and uplifting our young people as leaders of positive change. The courage and leadership of our youth remind us that peace and progress are only possible when we walk side by side as a community.

I drove back from Pittsburgh yesterday to make sure I showed up for a powerful peace walk in Olney and East Oak Lane. I was honored to join the Sturgis Hornets and members of the Olney community as we walked along Godfrey Avenue promoting peace in our neighborhood.

Make your voice heard and urge Senate Republicans to pass permanent, recurring mass transit funding:

Tell Senate Republicans to Get Back to Work so YOU Can Get to Work

The budget is overdue and transit systems you and your loved ones depend on are going to start cutting routes and canceling services like buses, trains and rides to the doctor for seniors. The House passed a transit plan that delivers for YOU and also invests in fixing roads and bridges...

PennDOT approved SEPTA’s request to use capital assistance funds to resume all routes on 9/14 with fare increases. This is only a temporary fix. We still need PA Senate Republicans to do their job and pass permanent, recurring funding for mass transit. wwww.septa.org/news/septa-r...

Last week, my office hosted an expungement clinic, where we helped 50 neighbors remove minor, nonviolent offenses from their records. One mistake shouldn’t define a person’s future. It was rewarding to help clear these records and open the door to better opportunities.
