It's a new low for PA billionaire Jeffrey Yass and his errand boys at the Commonwealth Foundation. They sent out a mailer that claims the current Supreme Court created the gerrymandered maps that they overturned. They're lying to overthrow our courts. #VoteYes www.inquirer.com/politics/ele...
A ‘brazen’ Jeffrey Yass-backed mailer suggests the Pa. Supreme Court created the congressional map it actually threw out
“It’s probably the most shameless political ad I’ve ever seen,” said Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice David Wecht in a rare interview.

Today we remember 9/11 a day of deep tragedy that still wounds us. Many people remember national unity on that day and following it, but it's also important to remember people were harassed and endangered because they "looked" Muslim. We have to look back and learn and be better.

We are thrilled to announce that by unanimous declaration, the @padems.org have elected Eugene DePasquale as Chair of the Pennsylvania State Democratic Committee!

All our thanks and appreciation to our outgoing State Party Chair, Senator Sharif Street. We wish him success in his run for Congress next year! @padems.org

The current administration's economic policies are working...to hurt the economy for everyone.
U.S. economy adds only 22,000 jobs as labor market stalls
It's the first jobs report since Trump fired the BLS commissioner and alleged the data was rigged against him.

On Labor Day remember that organized labor is integral to the maintenance of our democracy. And let us never take for granted all the things that seem very normal to us today that were brought to us by the blood, sweat, and tears of organized labor.

Rural areas have seen cuts to transit services for years & now Republican legislators want EVEN MORE cuts. Sen. Judy Ward doesn’t seem to know that there are folks in OUR COMMUNITY depend on public transit. Call Sen. Ward & tell her to FUND TRANSIT TODAY.

Funny story, Democrats on the ground don't actually talk like that to the average voter. Is there like a fourth way where @thirdway.bsky.social just admits that free healthcare and education & forgiving student loans & rebuilding unions & clean water etc is all really popular and they focus on that?
Scoop: Third Way is circulating a memo, shared first with @playbookdc, featuring a new blacklist of words Dems shouldn’t use.

You’re moved in. Your parents left. Before heading out to “study,” get yourself registered to vote in Pennsylvania’s next election at vote.pa/register. #Back2SchoolBack2Vote

Every part of Pennsylvania benefits from public transit. Help let our Senators and Representatives know that we're not buying the urban v. rural bullshit. We're all in this together. #TransitForAllPA
Whether your county is served by a bus system or you use transit for the elderly or folks w/ disabilities, all transit in PA will see cuts if Senate Rs get their way. This isn't about urban vs. rural. Share your transit story to help push back against false narratives about public transportation.
Transit Cuts Hurts Us All
We're pushing back on a false narrative that transit is only about SEPTA. It's about transit service all across Pennsylvania. Help spread the word about why transit is so important to you.

We're all getting screwed by our Republican led Senate. It's time for rural and urban folks to stand together and let them know we're not fighting each other, we're standing strong to fund ALL transit. #FundSEPTA #PassARealBudget

Who are we voting for in this year's statewide judicial elections? It's gotta be Judge Brandon Neuman and Judge Stella Tsai! #2025JudicialElectionsPA

This was an absolutely horrific incident and thus far the city's response has been deeply inadequate. We're thankful for all the community members stepping up to make sure our leaders know that this is unacceptable.
@blairdems.bsky.social The Altoona police and local ice presence is out of control. This video of an illegal arrest in Altoona is just a small example of the abuse in this community. youtu.be/a2lHxMsnkPE?...
