45 - let’s go!

Political violence and threats against elected officials are real!

Yesterday, I along with our colleagues discovered that a “hit list” had been posted online of 35 of my Democratic colleagues in the House and Senate with threats to carry out violence towards them on or around Memorial Day.

I am grateful that my colleagues are safe and the alleged perpetrator has been arrested and now faces criminal charges of making terroristic threats.

I am enraged and we must take action as a state legislature to protect ourselves, families, staff, constituents and our communities at large from this hateful brand of violence.

It’s Month and I had the honor or organizing a dynamic panel with two powerhouse moms and advocates at the Disability & Mental Health Summit!

Thank you Carmen Alexander and Mariah Peoples who shared their life and leadership experience, Dan Miller for his vision for this Summit and my colleagues, Rep. Jessica Benham, Rep. Emily Kinkead, and Rep. Jen Mazzocco who carry on this legacy and CCAC for hosting us.

Honored to join the Pennsylvania Association of Community Health Care Centers for their day of advocacy to request $5 million in this year’s budget to cover the critical healthcare services they provide in over 50 counties across the Commonwealth. I am proud to work with East Liberty Family Health Care Center and Primary Health Care Center in the heart of the 24th Legislative District!

This is what legal victory looks like—and here’s what’s next for in Pennsylvania!

On this Monday, April 27 at 1 PM in Capitol East Wing Rotunda, I’m bringing together legislators, advocates, legal champions, providers, and partners—including Women’s Law Project and If/When/How—to mark a historic court ruling in “Allegheny Reproductive Health Center v. PA Dept. of Human Services” that struck down Pennsylvania’s 44-year Medicaid abortion ban!

This didn’t happen overnight. It’s the result of years of strategy, organizing, and legal advocacy going back to at least 2019—and I’m proud to have been part of the leadership that moved this fight forward and to have co-written and edited the groundbreaking amicus brief and support of this case - the first of its kind.

Now, we make it real.

We’re coming together to celebrate this Reproductive Justice win—and to demand full implementation, accountability, and access to reproductive healthcare for every Pennsylvanian regardless of income.

Be there on Monday!
