Safe Boating Week is an important reminder that one should always prioritize safety while enjoying our community’s wonderful waterways. Please make sure that you always wear a life jacket, check your equipment, have a float plan, and follow other safe boating practices.

As a Doctor I know that food is at the root of many of the chronic health challenges we face. Proud to join bipartisan colleagues under the leadership of Rep. Natalie Mihalek and Rep. Melissa Shusterman in advocating for legislation to build transparency and accountability in our food supply in PA

It was great to meet last week with childcare providers from Township of Hampton and Pittsburgh on the importance of state investment in this area. I am committed to making this a priority in this year’s budget.

As we begin EMS Week, great to visit MFPAA for their open house. As an ER Doc & State Rep, I continue to advocate for EMS through funding for equipment and sponsoring legislation like HB 1152 to ensure their financial viability. Thanks for all you do. I’ll always have your back.

During this Mental Health Month, let us recommit to recognizing that mental health is health and that we must enact public policies that will ensure that mental healthcare is accessible and affordable for all Pennsylvanians.

It was great to meet with girl scouts from the Avonworth community to discuss our form of government, my role as our state legislator, and ideas for improving our community and state. Thanks to the girls for their time and engagement and to the scout leaders for their invitation.

I'm proud to celebrate AAPI Heritage Month and the many Asian American and Pacific Islanders that have contributed so much to our Commonwealth. The AAPI community has shown time and again how everyone flourishes when we live up to William Penn's vision of a Commonwealth for all.

President Trump's so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” will cut Medicaid and food assistance, creating a hole in our state budget that will be challenging to fill, and will be catastrophic for many families in PA. Please contact our federal legislators and urge them to oppose this bill

Great to join fellow elected officials at the ribbon cutting for Highmark Wholecare’s Connection Center. At a time of great threat to Medicaid, we need more efforts to engage with those in need to receive healthcare. The Connection Center is an important way to do so.
