PA-05's Congressional Art Competition winner, Jayasri's black and white drawing "Air Dry," is now in the U.S. Capitol Complex for a year! Art is a powerful tool for self-expression, and I am proud to showcase our district's talent in Congress.

I joined @repleanne.com, Senator Kane, and Delco Executive Director Barbara O'Malley in Aston to hear from constituents about the impact of drastic White House policy changes on our community. We discussed how all levels of government are working together to protect services, funding, and the law.
