PA families continue to struggle to put food on the table and keep the lights on while our government continues to dole out your tax dollars in excess. 

Under the Shapiro Shell-Out budget, the Governor's office scored an additional $3 million for social media to bring you even more of his cringe-worthy TikTok's and Shapiro selfies. Pennsylvania deserves better. #StopTheWaste

Pennsylvania’s new $50.1 billion budget spends $6 billion more than it takes in — with no reforms, no accountability, and cuts to public cyber charters that set school choice back a decade.

Unchecked spending is driving inflation and hammering hardworking Pennsylvanians. It’s fiscal chaos.

The @pennsylvaniadot announced that a bridge on Paper Mill Road (Route 2024) over the north branch of Muddy Creek was struck over the weekend and is closed until further inspection and/or repairs can be made. The 88-year-old bridge is located between Route 74 in Lower Chanceford Township and Flintville Road in Peach Bottom Township in southeastern York County.

In the meantime, a detour will use, Route 74, Broad Street, Lay Road, Flintville Road and Paper Mill Road.

🏈 🎉Yesterday, I had the pleasure of cheering on the Dillsburg Ponies as they drove past my office in a send-off parade to the 2025 CFA Pony Super Bowl to play Red Land!

This year’s championship featured the grandchildren of two 31st District legends—Col. Joe Innerst and Dr. Larry Cox—going head-to-head. The Dillsburg Ponies came out on top with a 20-0 victory! 

Congrats to both teams on an amazing season! The 31st District is a true powerhouse in Youth Club Pony Football!

Tomorrow, my offices will be closed in honor of Veterans Day.

This is a day to pause, reflect and celebrate the incredible courage and sacrifice of the men and women who have served our country. Their dedication protects our freedoms and inspires us every day.

Meet Senator Keefer

Dawn Keefer has been a champion of right-sizing government and reining in government regulation during her time in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives from 2017-2024, and since her election to the state Senate in November 2024. As State Representative of the 92nd legislative district in Northern York County, Keefer cut her legislative teeth during her first year in office, developing a non-taxing solution to balance a state budget that included $1.5 billion more in spending than in projected revenues.
