A compromise that sacrifices Pennsylvania’s participation in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) to end the commonwealth’s four-month budget stalemate would be shortsighted and harmful, environmental and clean energy advocates say.

Environmentalists urge Shapiro, lawmakers not to compromise on climate to end budget impasse • Pennsylvania Capital-Star
RGGI aims to reduce climate-warming carbon dioxide emissions from power plants by requiring the companies that own them to invest in clean energy projects.

It also was noted that there was recently a devastating forest fire in this exact area and currently the area is under a burn ban. Will law enforcement investigate given Sen. Keefer put others in danger?
One month after an extremist firebombed Gov. Shapiro’s residence and tried to murder him and his family, Republican PA State Senator Dawn Keefer posted a video of her taking a flamethrower to Gov. Shapiro’s budget.

These people are insane — and utterly tasteless.

This is utterly grotesque, a complete embarrassment to Pennsylvania and our institutions. To say I’m horrified is an absolute understatement.

Last night I went to DC for the We Are @emilys List. It was fun and inspirational (at a time when we can all use a little boost). Most importantly, I finally had the opportunity to meet my fellow Rising Star nominees and they are as amazing and inspirational as you would think!

But also, the ballots are printed specific to each election. You can only get an official ballot that can be electronically read with correct info during that specific election period. Between this and the postage date… it’s pretty obvious the ballot was completed within the appropriate timeframe.
Insurrection Barbie doesn’t seem to be familiar with how mail works.

Our volunteers made 50k calls into SD-36.

Every call mattered.

Never let anyone tell you that talking to voters doesn’t work.

Breaking News: Democrat James Malone just defeated a Republican in a Pennsylvania district that voted for Trump by over 15 points.

This is a huge embarrassment for Elon Musk, who urged people to vote for the GOP candidate.

You know that Musk and his billionaire friends have taken over Washington. You probably don’t know that we can diminish their influence in Harrisburg. Help @maloneforsenate.bsky.social win his special election next week! #papolitics #SD36 #specialelections

This is bullshit!

Dismantling the Department of Education would mean teacher layoffs, taking programs away from students, and schools falling into despair, all so Donald Trump can take your taxpayer dollars away from schools and give it to his billionaire friends.

Back in January of 2023 a few months before I gave birth to my daughter, I spoke to The 19th News about how my experiences trying to start and expand my family have informed what I am fighting for in the state Senate.

To the woman who stopped to tell me I’m doing a great job as a mom (with a hollering toddler)… thank you 🥹 that small of kindness was meaningful before the our country became the hellscape it is now. It’s even more meaningful today. Be that kind person for someone.

Dear CEOs,
Is now a good time to talk about the gun violence in America & leverage your power & billions to lobby lawmakers to pass gun violence prevention laws?
