Recent ATmosphere posts, sponsorships, and cosponsorships.
Meals on Wheels: I met with the Montco Senior Adult Activities Center Meals on Wheels program that provides nutritional and emotional assistance for our elderly and disabled community to discuss how the White House’s proposed funding cuts would impact their work.
Jaisohn Memorial House: I welcomed President Lee to Media to visit Jaisohn Memorial House, the longtime home to Philip Jaisohn, one of the founders of the Republic of Korea, a doctor, and the first Korean person to become a U.S. citizen.
Philadelphia Shipyard: I joined local and state leaders to christen a maritime training vessel and commemorate Hanwha’s investment in shipbuilding in Philly Shipyard, and spoke to President Jaemyung Lee on how this investment will strengthen our local economy for years to come.
Coffee(s) with Your Congresswoman: I held 4 events across PA-05 to discuss issues impacting our communities with constituents, including cuts to SNAP Benefits and Medicaid by the GOP, the impact of tariffs, redistricting efforts across our country and so much more!
Philabundance Community Kitchen: Philabundance provides culinary arts and life skills training to SNAP-eligible students and prepares them to work in the food service industry. I packed over 1100 meals with them and learned more about their mission to end hunger.
ChesPenn Health Services: The staff at ChesPenn Health Services have been heroic in serving patients, particularly pregnant moms, in the wake of Crozer Health’s closure. I spoke with them about the ongoing challenges to the healthcare system and impact Medicaid cuts will have.
Southeast Asian Water Festival: I joined our Southeast Asian community at FDR Park in Philadelphia to celebrate cultural heritage, dragon boat racers, and environmental significance of water at the 3rd Southeast Asian Water Festival.
Hank’s Place: I grabbed a bite at Hank’s Place, a neighborhood institution in Chadds Ford. It reopened after I helped the owners get funding to restore this community landmark after it suffered severe damage from Hurricane Ida.
National Night Out: I joined the Springfield and Marcus Hook communities’ National Night Out events to connect with neighbors and local police offices to build trust and promote public safety efforts in our community.
Veolia: @mcbride.house.gov, @houlahan.house.gov, and I visited Veolia’s PFAS water treatment plant to understand how they are trying to mitigate the presence forever chemicals in our water.
Brandywine Conservancy Museum of Art: I secured recovery funding for the Brandywine Conservancy & Museum of Art after Hurricane Ida. @mcbride.house.gov, @houlahan.house.gov, and I visited to discuss how investments in FEMA and disaster relief efforts help our community.
Penn Terminals: I visited Penn Terminals to check out the new Leibherr Crane, upgrades to the shipping facilities infrastructure, and the impacts of the Trump Administration’s tariffs on their operations.
Some of my favorite moments of August in PA-05:🧵
The Food Stamp Act was a major step forward to ending hunger in America, & has helped feed millions of Americans including children, seniors, & veterans. 60 years later, the Trump administration and DC Republicans are cutting SNAP Benefits for millions of Americans to pay for a Billionaire Tax Cut.
“Robust, independent investigations of public corruption are needed now more than ever”- to preserve both government integrity and Americans’ faith in their public officials.
No one is above the law.

I had so much fun visiting Swarthmore Public Library to read during story hour. Children's literacy is one of the most important investments we can make in our future - and theirs. Public libraries provide essential resources and community spaces that help neighbors and friends come together.
I have joined @repkimschrier.bsky.social & @debbiedingell.house.gov & 140 of my colleagues in urging Sec. Rubio to reverse State Dept. decision to halt temporary medical-humanitarian visas for children from Gaza.
Barring children from receiving life-saving medical care is cruel and un-American.
A birthday party broke out at the farmers market this morning!
20 years ago, Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, and a lack of preparation caused historic devastation and the loss of life. By gutting FEMA and targeting those voicing concerns about our readiness during Hurricane Season, this admin is putting the American people at risk for the next disaster.
