I was honored to present Pennsylvania Senate citations to Dr. Jed Seitzinger and Sarah Fishburne, both outstanding members of my Senate district, in recognition of receiving the EMS Star of Life Award.
Dr. Seitzinger has dedicated 25 years to providing emergency medical services, serving as a medical command physician since 1998. His tireless commitment to preserving the health and safety of our community has earned him the respect and gratitude of so many.
Sarah Fishburne has also faithfully served our community for 25 years as a paramedic, providing exceptional care and compassion to those in need. Her devotion to duty sets an incredible example for all.
The American Ambulance Association’s Stars of Life program honors EMS professionals who go above and beyond the call of duty and highlights the critical role EMS plays in our health care system.
Please join me in congratulating Dr. Seitzinger and Sarah Fishburne, true local heroes, on this well-deserved recognition!

Today, I was honored to attend the joint @usdagov and @deptofdefense press conference announcing the seven-point National Farm Security Action Plan.
I’m grateful for @potus’s steadfast support of legislators like me who are working to protect our farmland and strengthen America’s food supply. Farm security is national security and that’s why I’m proud to sponsor PA’s Farmland Protection Bill, Senate Bill 386, to help safeguard our farmland from foreign ownership and secure it for future generations.
Special thanks to Attorney General @agpambondi and Secretaries @secrollins, @secdef29 and @kristinoem for recognizing how vital farmland protection is to our nation’s security and for their leadership on this issue.
