This year, U.S. employers announced the highest number of layoffs since the 2020 pandemic recession and the lowest number of planned hires since 2010.

The high cost of living is out of control.

November saw the biggest monthly private sector job losses in 2 1/2 years, driven by small businesses that are grinding to make it in this economy.
We need to get our government in the business of unrigging an economy that huge corporations have manipulated to crush competition.

This week, Gov. Josh Shapiro was joined by lawmakers and advocates in Allegheny County to highlight childcare investments secured in the #PAbudget
These investments will help Pennsylvania recruit & retain childcare workers, expand access to quality care & so much more.

2/ The administration’s move to close these offices just cedes yet more of the information space to them. It's not only a strategic own-goal but ignores the ruling of a federal judge. Congress must not let this stand.

Here in Pittsburgh, we’re taking old abandoned spaces and turning them into affordable housing and parks – creating thousands of jobs and expanding economic opportunity.
Pittsburgh is on the rise – and the Esplanade project is a big reason why.

The new National Security Strategy is a propaganda document, designed to be widely read. It is also a performative suicide. Hard to think of another great power ever abdicating its influence so quickly and so publicly. It will be worth following the reactions around the world, not just in Europe.
Trump's national security strategy is out and some of the Europe sections are shocking. "...the growing influence of patriotic European parties indeed
gives cause for great optimism."
