Rotten to the core: Trump terminates most federal unions (those that didn't endorse him) as "a threat to national security," but refuses to terminate cabinet members who actually are a threat to national security.
Honored to present June Robbins and Florence Thompson with their own Congressional Gold Medals in recognition of their vital contributions on the Home Front during World War II.
The Congressional Gold Medal was awarded to real-life Rosie the Riveters who played a pivotal role in the war effort.
I was honored to join students and faculty at Widener University for a celebration of Women's History Month and a conversation about women and politics in the century since enactment of the 19th Amendment.
I was delighted to join Mirmont Treatment Center to learn more about its innovative Overdose Response Team which works with Delco 911 personnel to connect individuals in crisis with treatment.
I was proud to secure $560,000 to help get this program started.
Every member of Congress should condemn these unlawful firings, and I strongly encourage the legal action to reverse this power grab.
This administration’s illegal efforts to eliminate watchdogs and reshape agencies, like the FTC and CFPB, that protect American consumers only benefits big businesses, allowing the president’s billionaire buddies to line their pockets at the expense of consumers and workers.
By attempting to fire Federal Trade Commissioners Alvaro Bedoya and Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, President Trump has continued his assault on independent agencies that Congress designed to be free from partisan influence.
When the families of World War II veterans Frank X. Hagan Jr. and Anthony C. DiDio reached out for help in obtaining their fathers' service medals, my office jumped on it. I was grateful to have the honor of presenting the medals to their families and hearing about their service.
Orwellian double-speak from the Justice Department, claiming that gutting enforcement of ADA guidelines for people with disabilities will lower the cost of living - unless, of course, you are disabled!

While essential programs like SNAP and Medicaid are under attack, I was thrilled to join Philabundance and members of the legal community to kick off the Justice for the Hungry campaign to fight food insecurity in our communities.
Great to join Penn Policy and local leaders for a town hall in Darby focused on this Administration’s plan to cut taxes for billionaires and big business while decimating federal funding for programs like Medicaid and SNAP.
These constituents were clear: They don't support the GOP's budget plans.
I was proud to join state and federal leaders and fair housing advocates in calling out the Trump administration's unconstitutional efforts to roll back decades of progress in preventing housing discrimination by gutting affordable and fair housing programs— all to give tax cuts to billionaires.
House Democrats stand united for a four-week funding extension that stops harmful cuts, keeps government open, and allows Congress to reach a bipartisan funding agreement. I am ready to vote today, tomorrow or Friday to pass a four-week extension.
Veterans make up 30% of our federal workforce. So when DOGE indiscriminately destroys federal programs, it's not just cutting vital services for American families—it's also firing veterans. And that's on top of already deep VA cuts.
This is not how we honor someone's service.
The cost of living is spiking and the stock market is tanking because of Donald Trump’s policies. But Trump and Republicans don’t care. In the longest joint session speech ever, Trump spent less than two minutes talking about lowering the cost of living.
I no longer saw the point in enduring his dangerous mockery of our democracy. So I quietly excused myself and left the chamber
I went to tonight's joint address with the intention of staying for the entire speech out of respect for our nation. But after an hour of rambling, the President's remarks became increasingly untruthful and disrespectful to both members of Congress and the American people.
🗓️TOMORROW: Join us for a tele-town hall focused on litigation and the Trump Administration.
I'll join @houlahan.house.gov,
@repdean.bsky.social, and @neguse.house.gov alongside special guest Professor David Vladeck. Dial 855-731-4616 at 6 p.m. to join 📞
RSVP ➡️ scanlon.house.gov/calendar/eve...
I joined local and state officials to view recent demolition and progress at the Sellers Avenue Bridge reconstruction over SEPTA and Amtrak lines - a complicated project! The bridge was originally built in 1904 but is being rebuilt to ensure structural integrity for drivers and pedestrians.
Navigating federal agencies like the IRS, VA, or Social Security Administration can be difficult — but my casework team is here to help!
If you're having an issue with a federal agency, give us a call at 610-626-2020.
