I'm happy to announce that JEVS Human Services has received $52,132 in LSA funding. These upgrades will help them better serve their students, and I'm always happy to work to make sure our students have everything they need to succeed in life!

Yesterday, we celebrated a new mobile screening unit at Fox Chase Cancer Center, and today it's at my Academy Road office for mammograms. Proud to have worked with Senators Haywood & Tartaglione to secure over $3.5M for facility updates & $400K for mobile screenings.

Too many local seniors are afraid of being priced out of their homes. That’s why Senator Amanda Cappelletti & I introduced SB 1095 to stabilize rents by corporate landlords. Stable housing = safer streets & better schools!

I'm proud to be a part of a record setting state budget where we invested over $8 billion in K-12 education. I made it a priority to secure additional funding for the schools in Northeast Philly. I was able to secure an additional $7.9 million for the schools in my district.

PENNCARE is a lifeline for our seniors, helping them stay in their homes with essentials like meals & transportation. That’s why I co-sponsored SB 1311 to direct $15M from the Lottery Fund into PENNCARE. Great visiting KleinLife this week to discuss why this matters so much!

It was great to be able to stop by and speak with the Pennypack Senior group and hear some of their concerns as well. Taking care of my 88-year-old mom has really opened my eyes to some of the resources that our seniors need and deserve.
