Consensus is growing: Non-therapeutic declawing of cats is painful, outdated, & unnecessary. 🐾 It's already banned in countries around the world & several U.S. states. Many vet clinics refuse to do it, some vet schools don’t even teach it.

@RepHanbidge Thank you, @RepHanbidge, for your leadership on this critical issue. Your opening remarks in committee were spot on—thoughtful, informed, and compassionate. Pennsylvania’s cats and the people they own are lucky to have such a knowledgeable champion working to end declawing. 🐾

My office has heard reports of a Nazi flag having been flown within the 61st Legislative District this week. This abhorrent display of hatred has no place in our community or our commonwealth. 1/3

BREAKING: Democrats just WON the Pennsylvania House! Democrats flipped this chamber blue in 2022, and we’ve fiercely defended our one-seat majority ever since, winning all eight majority-deciding special elections. This win is a major victory for freedom and democracy.

I'm proud to share that my HB 1760 passed unanimously in the Senate and signed into law this past Monday as Act 40 of 2024. The new law expands the Slayer Statute, prohibiting those convicted of elder abuse from profiting by the death of those they abuse. https://t.co/a7VVfxUTRX

I also voted yes on HB1958 which provides a tax credit for employers who contribute to employees’ childcare costs.

Access to childcare can literally make or break many families who are struggling to make ends meet. My bill aims to strengthen the childcare ecosystem by providing a tax credit for businesses who contribute to employees’ childcare expenses.

Today the #PAHouse passed legislation that would incentivize employer contributions to employee childcare by providing a tax credit for employers that subsidize their workers' childcare costs.
