Great to be at Opportunity House in Reading to meet parents who rely on their affordable childcare options – and hang out with kids who are learning and growing.   I’ve heard firsthand from so many Pennsylvanians who are struggling with the high cost of childcare – so we worked

Thanks to the hard work of @PennDOTNews , the @PATurnpikeAlert , and our local governments, Pennsylvania repaired or replaced more than 200 bridges in 2023 — and our Commonwealth led the nation with the largest drop of poor-condition bridges of any state. We're working to spur

Lori and I know that Rosh Hashanah, a joyous holiday, feels different this year.   Tonight, we pray for the return of the hostages, for peace, for strength for all who courageously combat terror and for tolerance and understanding.   From our family to you and yours, we wish you

On my first day in office, I announced that 92% of state government jobs no longer require a four-year college.    We’re opening new doors of opportunity — and prioritizing your skills and experience over arbitrary four-year degree requirements.

Public transit helps 1 million Pennsylvanians every day get to work or school, shop and access essential services.  The Senate should pass a bill that can get to my desk because our neighbors deserve safe, clean and on-time rides.

Today we launched a new initiative through @PennsylvaniaDEP to plug orphaned and abandoned wells — reducing methane emissions, protecting public health, and creating jobs across our Commonwealth.  We're rejecting the false choice between protecting jobs and protecting our planet

Due to the humidity much of PA is currently experiencing, some voters are finding that their mail-in ballots have the return envelope already sealed. If you receive a sealed secrecy or return envelope, please contact your county election office for their recommended next steps.
