It's indisputable, the people of the 153rd legislative district are the best! You once again blew me away with the amount of donations that came into my office's annual School Supply drive.
It’s not about buses & trains; it’s about people & jobs. That’s why I voted for a plan to protect & create jobs, repair and replace bridges and roads, and keep our economy moving. It’s time to tell the PA Senate to get back to work! Visit www.pahouse.com/fundtransitnow to contact the Senate today.
Tips to reduce your energy:
Raise your thermostat a few degrees & use fans to circulate air
Limit appliance use during peak hours (5–7 PM)
Close blinds/curtains during sunny hours
Avoid extra lighting/electronics that generate heat
Seal windows/doors to keep cool air inside

If managing your bill feels difficult, reach out to your utility company to learn about programs that can help with payments and offer energy-saving advice.
Even though the hottest days may be behind us, summer isn’t over.
This summer’s heat waves have pushed electric use to a 14-year high, so you might see higher energy bills soon. Whether you’re using air conditioning or fans, it’s a good idea to review your bill and understand your energy use.

I brought information about my five pieces of legislation affecting the LGBTQ+ community and made sure people knew we are working hard to protect their rights in the commonwealth.
It was a great time at the Bucks-Mont Pride Festival today! Thank you to everyone who came by our tent to hear about where we succeed and where there’s more work to be done regarding state protections for the LGBTQ+ community in PA.
It was an honor to welcome this year’s PIAA Champions, the Upper Dublin High School Baseball team, to the Capitol today along with my colleagues @senatorcollett.com and @repcerrato.com. These boys have much to be proud of and so do we. Congratulations again on a stellar season, boys! ⚾️🏆
It's another scorcher today! Stay safe in this weather, check on your neighbors and please don't forget your furry friends. Keep them hydrated and outside in short time frames only. 🥵🐾🔥

Their work is crucial & unfortunately the most recent federal budget didn't include grant dollars that our friends at Mitzvah Circle depend on to keep their program going. We are participating in this Southeast delegation-wide donation drive now through July 18th.
In addition to providing free menstrual products to families in need, Mitzvah Circle’s Period Supply program also provides free menstrual products to local libraries, prisons, community centers, colleges and more than 345 partner organizations.
Join my office in helping our friends @mitzvahcircle.bsky.social collect period products for the people they serve, including many within our legislative district.
