I joined my fellow legislators yesterday to speak out against the Trump administrations so called “Big Beautiful Bill.” We made our stance clear, this big, UGLY bill will make substantial cuts to vital services that we cannot fill on the state level.

Under the current presidential administration, we have seen policy proposals that threaten access to contraceptives available to women.

I was proud to vote "yes" for the Working Pennsylvanians Tax Credit! Under this bill, more than a million working Pennsylvanians could receive up to $2,300 back in their pockets during tax time.

This is money for whatever you want or need to spend it on!
