Rather than waiting until Jan/Feb, let’s serve the people of Pennsylvania and the Nation by working on bipartisan appropriations legislation right now. No need for a shutdown, and no need to kick the can that far down the road.

It was great getting to meet up with Congressman Dan Meuser and Matt Cartwright on Capitol Hill to learn more about the work Congress is doing! Click the link to watch the interviews.

Thank you Matt Cartwright and Mayor Lombardo for a great tour and discussion on how we work together to spark economic revitalization and create pathways to good-paying jobs.

The American people deserve a Congress that works for them, not one stuck in chaos and gridlock.

Pennsylvania's U.S. House Democrats are united and ready to work for the people of the Commonwealth.

When we support service members and their families, we’re investing in America’s national security. The #FY23NDAA would support a well-deserved pay raise for those who service our country – I’m so proud to support this bill.

157 years ago, the 13th Amendment banned slavery except as punishment for a crime. I am proud to cosponsor Congresswoman Nikema Williams and Senator Jeff Merkley’s joint resolution to end this exception. Slavery is not acceptable under any circumstances. It’s time to abolish slavery once and for all.

Student #veterans honorably served our country. New bipartisan legislation I introduced today aims to set these military heroes up for success as they transition to civilian careers.

The strike-averting #rail legislation I voted for today allows for additional paid sick leave for rail workers. While the rail industry rakes in record profits, it’s unacceptable that workers have zero guaranteed paid sick days. Read my full statement: cartwright.house.gov/news/documents…

Today the Senate is taking a crucial step towards passing the #RespectForMarriageAct . As a proud cosponsor of the bill when it passed the House, I look forward to my Senate colleagues passing this important legislation. Let’s get this done. 🌈🌈🌈

One year later and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is making it possible to put #NEPA back on the passenger rail map. This historic funding will upgrade America’s infrastructure, create good-paying jobs, and introduce new opportunities to ensure our best days are ahead of us.

Attention Luzerne County residents: If you were unable to vote today due to paper shortages and other issues, reminder that polls will be open until 10 p.m. TONIGHT.
I fully support this extension to allow for maximum voter participation.

I know rising prices are squeezing too many families in #NEPA . With the historic Inflation Reduction Act, I'm working to lower prices:
⚕️At the pharmacy
🩺In the doctor’s office
⛽️At the gas pump

I'll always put #PeopleOverPolitics

Open enrollment kicks off ❗️TODAY❗️for the Affordable Care Act marketplace. I voted for the American Rescue Plan and Inflation Reduction Act to expand important tax credits, saving #NEPA families an average of $800 a year, $2,400 per family. #GetCovered

Marion and I wish Paul Pelosi a full and rapid recovery following reports of his successful surgery. Our prayers remain with the Pelosi family during this very difficult time.

On #WorldPolioDay , we celebrate polio health workers. They are uniquely positioned in communities to create and distribute information, which increases trust in vaccines and improves education about routine immunization.

For those celebrating, I hope the #Diwali lights brighten your life and fill your day with happiness. Enjoy a wonderful day of festivities!

Today marks the 50th anniversary of the Clean Water Act, which has protected clean water and public health for five decades.
Right here in #NEPA , I'll keep fighting to clean up our rivers and streams in the wake of acid mine drainage: appvoices.org/2022/07/29/str…

Proud to recognize Nanticoke native, Capt. Daryle Cardone, who assumed command of the USS Ronald Reagan in waters just off the Korean Peninsula. Thank you Capt. Cardone and your 5,000 crew members for protecting and defending the United States.
