My @PaHouseDems colleagues and I are in Harrisburg and ready to pass a budget. However, the PA Senate is not here to negotiate to keep mass transit across the commonwealth running properly. Mass transit is a people issue, and we must pass a budget to keep mass transit moving.
I was honored to join Speaker @RepMcClinton and members of the @PALegBlkCaucus in welcoming students from Jack and Jill of Montgomery County to the #PAHouse for a day of learning and engagement. Check out their amazing speeches on important issues and highlights from their visit!
I and my @PaHouseDems colleagues are in Harrisburg and ready to pass a budget that works for all Pennsylvanians. However, the PA Senate is not here. We need the Senate to come back to work and negotiate in good faith to keep property taxes low and invest in quality education.
Our legislation to protect firefighters from exposure to harmful PFAS chemicals passed the #PAHouse! I’m proud to have been part of creating this legislation and of the support my colleagues showed by voting yes!
While the #PAHouse is working diligently to pass a budget that aligns with our morals & values, the #PASenate is nowhere to be found. Contact your state senator & urge them to get to work & fulfill their duties.
I'm happy to finally vote to #RaiseTheWage in Pennsylvania. Now it's time for the #PASenate to do their part and bring PA's minimum wage inline with all of our neighboring states.
I’ve seen firsthand how social workers change lives—including mine. They hold our communities together, yet struggle to stay afloat. That’s wrong. I’m fighting to make sure they’re paid what they’re worth. #PAforSocialWork 🔗 PAHouse.com/Scott | nasw-pa.org
Put down the phone while you're in the car! Paul Miller's Law makes it illegal to drive while using a cellphone or mobile device in your hand. This law goes into effect this week across PA. Let's keep our communities and neighbors safe and #EndDistractedDriving.
Everyone deserves the basics in life. I was proud to vote for the Working Pennsylvanians Tax Credit. The hard working folks of Montgomery County deserve a hand up, not a hand out.
This week I met with AG Dave Sunday, pushed for IVF access, and advanced my bill on PFAS in firefighting gear. I also want to remember Pope Francis and Bishop Ellis for their faith and service.
Being a new mom can be stressful, but it's okay to ask for help. It's great to know there are places like Beverly's PGH that will help with the journey. Thanks to @RepMayes , @RepGinaCurry and @RepCephas for putting on a wonderful and informative Black Maternal Health Summit!
