I work to end animal abuse in many forms, promoting vegan living and systemic change that also benefits people. I'm also a lifelong learner of world languages and cultures, and a proud retired US civil servant. gregoryreiterfund.org
Proud to join another event tonight in support of Dem #janellestelson’s campaign to represent the PA 10th District in the U.S. House.

This is among the most competitive districts in the U.S. I plan to do my part to help Janelle win in 2026, and I met many others tonight who plan to do the same.

What I’ve been up to with my Gregory J Reiter Memorial Fund. Contributing to various nutrition assistance initiatives — all plant-based, of course — of A Well-Fed World, PETA and Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. Personally volunteering a bit, too. gregoryreiterfund.org/2025/12/09/p...

I’m boycotting all three of these corporations until they change their policies. Join me — at least from Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday! weaintbuyingit.com

Sunday in Philly -- @peta.org - Revolution Philadelphia giveaway of plant-based holiday roasts at City Hall.

PETA is partnering with local orgs throughout the US this season to distribute 100s of vegan roasts, expanding access to healthy and hearty foods in this time of unprecedented need.

23 years ago, as a new US Dept of State civil servant, I took an oath to support and defend the Constitution, administered to my class by Sec Colin Powell — a defining life event. I’m retired now, but still #HonoringMyOath this #ConstitutionDay. Want more people in gov’t today to honor theirs.

ICYMI: Here's a fun and easy but powerful action we can each take this Wednesday Sept 17 for Constitution Day!

Spent Sunday afternoon at Pennsylvania Capital Region Stands Up forum “What does it mean to vote YES? The judicial retention question” featuring Kadida Kenner of Why Courts Matter & @newpennsylvania.bsky.social. "Our vote in the judicial election in 2025 helps ensure we have an election in 2026"!

#WorkersOverBillionaires rally at the Pennsylvania State Capitol in Harrisburg — one of hundreds happening across the country. The only way I can imagine spending Labor Day in 2025!
September 1, 2025 at 5:40 PM
Labor Day is coming up, and that means it’s time for another protest! Here’s where I plan to be — at one of the hundreds of events happening across the US, co-sponsored by well over 100 partner organizations. maydaystrong.org

Inspiring town hall in York PA this afternoon—my former US Congressman @raskin.house.gov of MD-8 joining forces with my future US Congresswoman Janelle Stelson for PA-10!
August 3, 2025 at 9:03 PM
I've signed up and am looking forward to hearing my previous US congressman @raskin.house.gov and future US congresswoman Janelle Stelson together!

Happy 45th anniversary to @peta.org! Photos from today at its Norfolk VA center for my 1st time in almost three years. I’ve been proud to support Daphna Nachminovitch & Kathy Guillermo in their impactful work to end cruelty toward animals in experimentation, agriculture, entertainment and more.

This afternoon’s “Good Trouble Lives On” rally in Harrisburg PA. I understand this was one of 1,500 events held nationwide today, organized by @50501movement.bsky.social, @indivisible.org and many other groups.

I’ve not before spent birthdays at political events—but my US House district, the PA 10th, is one of 18 expected to determine party control of that body in 2026. So the best thing I could do tonight was attend Janelle Stelson’s new campaign launch, where @governor.pa.gov announced his endorsement.
July 16, 2025 at 11:40 PM
At today’s Takoma Park MD parade with @raskin.house.gov’s Democracy Summer fellows, where he passed out copies of the US Constitution to the crowd, I also got to chat briefly about politics in my current PA district, his longtime work for animals, & the legacy of his late son Tommy. Energizing day!
July 4, 2025 at 4:14 PM
Getting ready to march in the Takoma Park MD Independence Day parade with @raskin.house.gov Rep. Jamie Raskin and his Democracy Fellows (young people) and Democracy Dreamers (old people like me).

Excellent town hall today by Capital Region Stands Up — 15+ PA state & local govt reps, + org leaders working for veterans, immigrants, & health care.

Our current US MOCs were invited & did not attend — but we had former US Rep @conorlambpa.bsky.social, for whom I voted in 2022 US Senate race…

Ever playful and mischievous, Caroline has been a devoted if sometimes manipulative companion to two off-track Thoroughbred geldings I also adopted from PETA rescues — first Henry (who came with her in 2014 and passed in 2022) …
June 21, 2025 at 12:37 AM
Celebrating 11 years with sweet Caroline!

My late husband Greg and I adopted her June 21, 2014, when she was about 7, after PETA rescued her from an abandonment case.
