@SenatorJWard
Wife, Mother, State Senator proudly representing the 30th Senate District in Pennsylvania comprised of Blair, Fulton, Huntingdon, Juniata and Mifflin Counties.
As the prime sponsor of Senate Bill 9, the Save Women’s Sports Act, I’m proud to be “an extremist”! bit.ly/4maLAKW
I was pleased to present a citation to the Altoona Chapter of AMBUCS to celebrate their 100th year anniversary! Accepting the citation is chapter president, Rick Centar. This is a truly great group of folks in our community.
Despite the strong bipartisan passage of Senate Bill 9, the “Save Women’s Sports Act”, out of the Senate, the House continues to play games with women’s rights and the protections enshrined in Title IX. Read my full statement here -senatorjudyward.com/2025/07/09/war…

I visited Bright Hope Pregnancy Support Centers in Allentown and saw their medical center, mobile ultrasound unit, resale shop, and housing for expecting moms. Grateful for the amazing work they do for mothers and babies! @SenatorJWard @RepMcNeill @RepMcNeill #SaveTheStorks
Men don't belong in women's sports. End of story. Thank you @SenatorJWard and @PASenateGOP for standing up for girls in Pennsylvania and passing the Save Women's Sports Act! @PAHouseDems should act immediately - or suffer the consequences for rejecting common sense.
Today, I joined colleagues in the Senate, former Hempfield High track athlete, Lily Williams, Emily Kreps, of the PA Family Council, Sen. Phillips-Hill & fellow advocates to call on the House to protect women & girls across our Commonwealth & pass SB 9 to Save Women's Sports!
We’re committed to expanding education access and reforming outcomes in the state’s most challenged schools with the Pennsylvania Award for Student Success (PASS) scholarship program.

SB 9 passed the Senate by a bipartisan vote of 32-18 & now heads to the House. We cannot allow the opportunities that Title IX enshrined for women to be lost. With our passage of this bill today, we have shown that we will defend women & their right to safe & fair competition.
