I am excited to share that nearly $1.8 million in new funding from the Neighborhood Assistance Program will be coming to northwest Reading! This funding will go a long way to addressing many of the most pressing issues in our community – education access, food insecurity, healthcare coverage, and more.

Yesterday, I had the deeply humbling and heartfelt experience of welcoming the family of Marnie Schulenburg-Robidas to the Capitol.

Marnie was an actress and mother who sadly passed away from Inflammatory Breast Cancer after being misdiagnosed with mastitis only months after her daughter was born. Now, her family has been championing legislation to improve medical education to ensure IBC can be caught more frequently before it becomes fatal.

My sister colleagues, Rep. Bridget M Kosierowski and Rep. Jennifer O'Mara, have introduced legislation that will do just that. I am thankful to the Schulenburg-Robidas family for doing the work to turn their grief into policy so that Marnie and her incredible legacy are always remembered, and I will proudly work to see HB 2850 signed into law. 🩷
