Great meeting with Independent Electrical Contractors during their "Day on the Hill". Thank you for stopping by and providing valuable insight into your industry`s needs.
I joined fellow legislators for @repjoedorsie Manufacturers Roundtable with businesses from our district. Manufacturing is vital to York County!
We heard directly from the people building, innovating and driving this industry forward. Their insight, experience and perspective are essential to shaping smarter policy and strengthening our local economy.
Thank you to all the business leaders who took the time to share their voices and expertise.
Our girls — and our future daughters, granddaughters and nieces — deserve better. They deserve fairness.
That`s why I voted this week in favor of the Fairness in Women’s Sports bill that protects the opportunities women have fought so hard to earn. Allowing nonbiological females to compete in women’s sports undermines fair competition.
I will stand up for our girls. Enough is enough.
Get involved. Show up. Speak out.
Today is Local Government Day in PA and decisions shaping your community are happening with or without you. Stay informed by checking agendas, minutes and meeting schedules on your county and municipality websites.
In Cumberland and York counties, commissioner meetings are held regularly and open to the public. While there, stop by my office next to the York County Commissioner`s meeting space and say hello.

Auditor General DeFoor`s audit confirmed noncitizens 𝐂𝐀𝐍 vote in our elections. PennDOT can`t confirm who had access to motor-voter data or the validity of the voter data transferred to the Dept. of State.
And since the audit failed to include my request to compare 𝐀𝐋𝐋 PennDOT noncitizen records with the Statewide Uniform Registry of Electors, the lack of public trust in our elections continues.
Just because Governor Shapiro says our elections are secure doesn`t make it true.

Productive day in the Senate Local Government Committee. As chair, I was proud to advance two important bills:
Senate Bill 1287, legislation I introduced to bring clarity and accountability to land development by requiring proof of adequate water service before final approval. Smart planning matters.
We also moved forward House Bill 1442, sponsored by @repborowski and @repflood, to improve reporting and awareness of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) — a step that will support research, better inform families and help save lives.

Patients shouldn’t be left in the dark when it comes to their own health care.
Today, I held a press conference with @we_the_patient to stand up for Pennsylvanians who are too often forced to navigate confusing coverage, unclear costs and limited information when making critical medical decisions.
Health care transparency isn’t optional — it’s essential. Patients deserve clear answers, not uncertainty.

Watch as @we_the_patient and I hold a press conference on health care transparency and my Patient Right-to-Understand Act — legislation focused on ensuring every patient in Pennsylvania can understand their coverage, costs and options before making medical decisions.
