Pennsylvania Senate Democrats have long fought for a budget that makes life more affordable for every Pennsylvanian, and I am pleased that we have adopted a budget that delivers on this critical priority. You can read my full statement and see my floor remarks on my website:

It was 13 years ago today, on December 14, 2012, that a gunman entered the Sandy Hook Elementary School, shot and killed 26 people. Twenty of them were young students, just 6 or 7 years old. Six of them were teachers and staff. My heart still breaks for their families.
