In all of the big news today, don't overlook today's PA voting rights victory. This would have resulted in 10,000 more votes being counted in 2022 and 5,000 in 2024.
Republicans have fought us at every turn to throw out these votes. But today we won for our clients--DSCC and DCCC--and PA voters.

Happy Opening Day! I don’t mean to get too inside baseball with the lingo - opening day is the day Senators are sworn in and the legislative session restarts in Harrisburg.
Pay close attention to the ✨rules✨ that pass today, they will govern how the senate runs for the next two years.
