(1/4) The current administration in Washington has made it abundantly clear that they are willing to cross lines that put our neighbors, family, and loved ones in danger. I've seen their morally reprehensible policing tactics leave a deep wound in West Norriton, and harm countless others across PA.
After 135 days of deliberate inaction from R Senate leadership, I’m relieved that, today, I was finally able to cast my affirmative vote for the sustainable, responsible budget my Dem colleagues and I have been fighting for: pasenatorcappelletti.com/senator-capp...

At its core the state budget proposal that Senate Rs brought up for a vote today is an insult to PA'ns who have been waiting over 100 days for a state budget. I voted NO.

🧵This week, Senate Republican leadership fast-tracked a bill that will give our state treasurer — who conveniently just announced her Republican gubernatorial candidacy — unlawful power to waive interest on budgetary impasse investment loans.

SEPTA's Scott Sauer is right: we need sustainable funding that our state legislature can & should provide. While Senate R leadership continues to stall our budget, I continue to stand ready to vote YES on measures that would ensure the longevity of PA's public transit: buff.ly/8HaNjxT

(🧵) So-called "leaders" in DC continue to spew dangerous misinformation about medications & vaccines. Instead of falling victim to it, what we *can* do is continue to support the science, listen to the real experts, educate ourselves, and work together to keep one another safe and healthy.

Abortion remains safe and legal in PA & I will always fight to keep it that way.
I recently reintroduced the Abortion Protections Package with Sen. Schwank to protect patients and their right to bodily autonomy despite other states' efforts to strip that right away.

Private equity's profit-driven tactics, & subsequent dismantling of vital healthcare institutions, is why I'm fighting for legislation that would safeguard our communities' ability to reach essential care services.

(1/2) PennDOT's $394 million allocation in capital funds to SEPTA is a last resort measure and simply not a sustainable solution to the transit funding crisis our region – and Commonwealth – faces. And, our Commonwealth is still left without a state budget.

(THREAD) After months of Republicans' deliberate inaction on PA's budget that has left public transit floundering, SEPTA will have to move forward with devastating service cuts & fare increases beginning next week on Sunday, 8/24.
I want to share a few key resources as we approach these changes.

I’m appalled that our R leadership is willing to put PA'n's livelihoods on the chopping block because they refuse to see the value in public transit.
That's why I rallied w/ my MontCo colleagues to once again urge leadership to do their job & secure a budget that keeps transit running.
