10 years ago, running for office wasn’t in my plan. Today, as PA House Speaker, I’m fighting for fair schools, justice reform, tax relief for families, and the CROWN Act. Grateful to serve my community. πŸ’™

The state budget process has begun. Lawmakers will question agency leaders and debate how your tax dollars are spent before the June 30 deadline. These decisions impact communities across PA. Your money. Your voice.

As the founder of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, he improved the lives of millions of people. He charted the course for the United States to elect its first Black president and opened the doors for countless other African American elected officials, while working tirelessly to register people to vote.

Rev. Jackson left his mark on history as a civil rights pioneer, fiery preacher, political trailblazer, and compassionate humanitarian. He dedicated his life to economic justice, racial equality, and promoting peace.

It was the honor of a lifetime to last see Reverend Jesse Jackson when he visited the Pennsylvania Capitol in 2024. I am truly saddened to lose such a titan but so grateful for his legacy of fighting for freedom.

Saddened by the passing of Justice Sandra Schultz Newman a true trailblazer. She broke barriers as PA’s first woman elected to the Supreme Court. Her legacy of service and dedication to justice will inspire generations. #JusticeNewman #Trailblazer
