Universal pre-K works. It boosts readiness, strengthens literacy, and supports working families. Proud to partner with @repdougherty.com to fight to bring it statewide! www.youtube.com/shorts/ghgKZ...

I asked Labor Secretary Walker today about the $15 minimum wage bill I’m co-priming with Reps. Green and Kenyatta. $7.25 isn’t livable. Raising the wage strengthens workers, supports families, and makes Pennsylvania more competitive.

In Pennsylvania prisons, people earn about 23 cents an hour. A $5 medical co-pay is nearly a week’s wages. That means access to care can depend on whether someone has money in their account. My bill will reduce the co-pay to $1 β€” keeping accountability in place while removing a real barrier to care.

Pennsylvania must be ready if we see the kind of federal immigration overreach we saw in Minneapolis. Today, I asked AG Dave Sunday whether his office has the tools to protect our state. I’ll keep fighting to make sure everyone can live and exercise their rights without fear.

At budget hearings this morning, I spoke with our Attorney General about our bill to stop private equity from treating community hospitals like piggy banks.

Hospitals should serve patients, not investors. youtube.com/shorts/PHrxQ...

The Constitution gives Congress the power to declare war. Before American service members are put in harm’s way, Congress must debate the facts and vote.

We must stop this escalation before it spirals further.

The American people deserve the truth and accountability.

The President has taken this nation into armed conflict without congressional authorization and without presenting clear evidence of an imminent threat to the United States.

That is not how our democracy works.

President Trump campaigned against regime-change and endless wars. Yet these actions risk pulling the United States into exactly that kind of open-ended conflict.

President Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have directed coordinated military strikes against Iran, targeting military sites as well as locations tied to Iran’s political leadership. At least one civilian site, including a girls’ school, was struck, causing mass civilian casualties.

Pennsylvania can’t compete when our minimum wage is still $7.25. I talked with Secretary Siger about my Bill with Rep Green & Kenyatta to raise PAs wage to $15 immediatelyβ€” something over 2/3 of Pennsylvanians support.

Houses of worship are sacred spaces.

No one should fear ICE while praying or grieving. My bill helps protect them inside and right outside their doors.

Religious freedom should mean freedom from fear.

Duplexes shouldn’t be illegal. Outdated zoning drives up costs.

We’re working with Gov. Shapiro to expand common-sense housing options like duplexes and shared homes. More supply. Lower costs.

Too many people are one rent hike away from losing their home.

Our new housing package expands affordable options, and the Golden Girls law lets older adults and working people share a home without breaking the law.

They used "anti-semitism" as a pretext to deport foreign-born students and chill free speech, and their deportation chief -- the one with the nonstandard Hugo Boss-style greatcoat -- was spouting anti-semitic insults at a US attorney

Over-incarceration clogs courts, wastes money, and doesn’t stop repeat crime. Diversion programs work because they focus on accountability and the root causes of crime. My resolution studies how to expand and improve diversion across PA and it just passed the Judiciary Committee!

Violence by federal agents in Minnesota is taking innocent lives, including ICU nurse Alex Pretti. Our PA House resolution today calls on Congress to ensure accountability comes before more funding.

Another killing this morning by federal agents in the peaceful city of Minneapolis, again in broad daylight. The President and his enablers have unleashed chaos, lawlessness, and violence in our communities in pursuit of a radical agenda to seize power and instill fear through state-sanctioned violence. 

We deserve safety, transparency, and answers β€” not continued escalations and more violence.

In the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, we have introduced several bills and resolutions to limit the abuse of federal power and the militarization of civil federal agencies unfolding in real time. We will resist any attempt to normalize the chaos and terror ignited by this administration.

RFK Jr. was in Harrisburg today. I spoke at the counter-rally with other health professionals and organized labor because health coverage, food security, vaccine access, and life-saving research are being weakened.

When policies hurt patients, it’s time to speak up and change course.

RFK Jr. is upending U.S. vaccine policy. A Philly expert says child hospitalizations and deaths will rise as a result. Paul Offit, a nationally renowned vaccine expert who co-invented a vaccine for rotavirus, said the move will only increase preventable illnesses in children.

Today, RFK Jr. rolled back routine childhood vaccines at the CDC β€” driven by political extremism & conspiracy theories, not science

Our bill with @repvenkat.com makes sure parents can still keep their kids safe & healthy in Pennsylvania. Time for the Senate to act
