The National Fraternal Order of Police is the world’s oldest and largest organization representing sworn law enforcement officers.

Black History is American History.
Each February, we lift Black History Makers — Americans who have shaped our arts, culture, science and more. It is joyful recognition.
Yet, just a few weeks ago we witnessed our history being abruptly removed from Independence Mall, our nation’s birthplace.

We love the Schuylkill River — walking, biking, and hiking along it is one of the best parts of living in Berks and MontCo.
Grateful to Elaine and Tim from the Schuylkill River Greenways for all they do to recognize its value and help keep it the special place it is.

ICE is sowing chaos, fear, and cruelty.

No better way to end a week in Washington than meeting with our students!
What a joy to meet with students from Barrack Hebrew Academy as part of their civic education program.
The thoughtful engagement of our young people is a great thing to witness.

In 24 hours, the Trump Admin cancelled — and then reinstated — thousands of SAMHSA grants.
They heard our outrage.
While I am deeply relieved about this reversal, providers for mental health and addiction services cannot operate in this uncertainty.

From Boyertown to Jenkintown, PA-04 depends on libraries for passport applications — and libraries rely on this revenue.

My bill would re-authorize public libraries as processing sites.

Renee Good was a mother of three — shot and killed by ICE.
It is a tragedy.
Yet the administration would rather smear her name than prioritize transparency, public safety, and a full investigation.
Minnesota — and all Americans — deserve better.
