Today, the Senate voted to designate the Seargent Patrick C. Hawkins Memorial Bridge in North Middleton Township. While on his 4th deployment, Sgt Hawkins was killed in action moving to aid a wounded fellow Ranger. Eternally grateful for his heroism and sacrifice. #neverforgotten 🇺🇸
Glad to join friends and colleagues from both the House and Senate this morning to prepare for one of my favorite events, the Capitol All-Stars Softball Game!
The game is non-partisan, bi-cameral and all proceeds go to Feeding Pennsylvania and Hunger-Free Pennsylvania! Since 2013, we`ve been able to fund meals for more than a million Pennsylvanians.
This morning, team rosters were determined for #teamyouse and #teamyinz through our traditional "bat grab" process. As Team Youse co-captain, along with Speaker Rep. Joanna McClinton, I`m pleased to report that we won the bat grab, just as we`ve won the last two All-Star Games!
I`m excited about our team--which includes PA State Rep. Sheryl Delozier and PA State Rep. Torren Ecker--and playing for a good cause. Hopefully the weather will cooperate this year!
The game is scheduled for Monday, September 29, 2025, 5:30 pm at FNB Field on City Island. Learn more and get tickets: https://www.capitolallstars.com/
Keeping our kids safe is of paramount importance. I was glad to join Attorney General Dave Sunday, #Safe2Say Program administrators, and Carlisle Area School District representatives to highlight the importance and effectiveness of the Safe2Say program.
Carlisle has embraced Safe2Say training and was applauded for their commitment to keeping our kids and our communities safe. Students who have had the courage to engage and law enforcement partners were also commended by the Attorney General.
It’s important to note that the program serves every corner of the commonwealth and is available 24/7, 365 days a year to receive confidential tips via the Safe2Say app, text, or 1.844.SAF2SAY.
Today, I had the pleasure of welcoming middle and high school @udasdtrojans archery teams back to the #PASenate floor to close out a season full of incredible accomplishments, including state championship titles and an incredible showing at nationals in Louisville, Kentucky.
Congratulations, archers, on your hard work, personal bests and perseverance! Congratulations also to the coaches for their time and dedication to program and student archers. I am honored to represent such and impressive and dedicated group.
Thanks to Congressman GT Glenn Thompson for coming to Harrisburg to discuss issues facing Pennsylvania’s agriculture industry, as well as the importance of the industry. lt is critical that all levels of government work together for the good of the Commonwealth!
Pleased to join
@GovernorShapiro
in thanking our fire fighters for their tireless efforts in responding to the Michaux State Forest fires. Their skill, dedication, and collaboration made all the difference. Their work and their heroism will long be remembered. We`re deeply grateful.
The Hampden Dragons took over the Capitol today! It was so much fun to host these outstanding students and teachers from the Cumberland Valley School District. We had some lively discussions about the legislative process, the three branches of government, and the role and function of each. I hope everyone had a great time!
Excited to join with leaders from East Pennsboro Twp. to officially open the new pedestrian bridge at Adams-Ricci Park! The park is at the center of community activity--from the playground to sports, festivals, and events--and the bridge will significantly improve safety and enhance accessibility to park amenities on both sides of the roadway.
It was a joy to welcome the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral to the Capitol, with Rep. Nate Davidson, PA State Rep. Sheryl Delozier, and Rep. Steve Malagari in belated celebration of Greek Independence Day!
This morning, I met with an impressive group of students from @carlisle_area_school_district. They`re getting a jump on their college credits through AP coursework and looking ahead to very bright futures! I can`t wait to see their continued success in school and beyond!
Great few days at the Capitol celebrating students across the district for their hard work and accomplishments!
Yesterday, I met with impressive students from Dauphin County Technical School to learn about their career aspirations and how #careerandtechnicaleducation is giving them the tools they need to reach their goals.
This morning, I met with future leaders in agriculture from @cumberland.valley.ffa at the annual #FFA Legislative breakfast.
And this afternoon, I welcomed back-to-back state champions @cumberlandvalleycheerleading as my guests on the #PASenate Floor.
