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.

House Republicans are moving forward with a budget scheme that cuts Medicaid to reward billionaire donors. In PA-05, their plan would put the 108,338 people on Medicaid at risk of losing their health care. I will never support a budget that betrays Pennsylvania families

I was honored to address over 200 attorneys about the Trump Administration's challenges to our Constitution and the rule of law at the Philadelphia Bar Association's "Meeting the Moment" event.

Just wrapped up a critical roundtable discussion with health care providers on the devastating impact of proposed Medicaid cuts for hundreds of thousands of children, seniors, and families in PA-05. Check out my latest update:

👋 Checking in quick between today's constituent meetings. I’m determined to provide as much insight as I can into the work I'm doing every day to protect our government institutions and the vital programs that Americans rely on.

We enjoyed welcoming Senator Mark Kelly to Philly Shipyard for a tour to emphasize the importance of revitalizing US shipbuilding and our maritime industries.

Top Dems on Senate Finance Committee have raised the alarm about Musk and his DOGE team having access to private taxpayer info at the IRS. Crickets from Team GOP. Don’t they care?

I joined the Black Farmers Co-Op for a workshop on starting an urban garden and learned more about their program to empower residents in Southwest Philly to grow their own produce. Even got some tips to start my own garden!

This week, 8 DOJ lawyers resigned rather than carry out unethical orders from the administration. Such acts of courage and character are far too rare in Trump's DC. We ALL need to stand up for our constitution. I'm in. Are you?

Analysis | Why the budding Trump DOJ scandal is a big deal

The episode crystallizes Trump’s politicization of usually independent government functions, and in this case some conservatives actually bucked his team.

More evidence that the Trump/Musk cuts to federal workforce are dangerous and uninformed — they reportedly cut the workers who manage our nuclear stockpiles and systems.

Trump officials fired nuclear staff not realizing they oversee the country’s weapons stockpile, sources say | CNN

Some of the fired probationary employees included on-the-ground staff at facilities where nuclear weapons are built.

This is how “leaving it up to the states” becomes a nationwide ban.

Judge orders New York OB-GYN to stop sending abortion pills to Texas, pay $100K fine

The ruling against a New York doctor who mailed pills to a Texas woman could have major implications for abortion pill access across state lines.

I will always vote to protect due process and the rule of law, and I stand ready to work on serious immigration reform whenever our GOP colleagues are ready to do so. My statement on H.R. 35 ⬇️

I won't stand by while President Trump and greedy billionaires plot to illegally dismantle our Department of Education.

House Republicans let Elon Musk invade your privacy by accessing personal data in the highly confidential Treasury payment system. House Democrats will not stand for it. We're introducing the Taxpayer Data Protection Act today to fight back.

Honored to stand with the brave Sicknick family as they speak in opposition to President Trump’s pardon of the January 6 criminals. Officer Brian Sicknick was the best of our country—giving his life to protect our democracy. We can never forget his, and all our law enforcement officers’, sacrifices.

Great to meet with Women’s Sports Foundation to discuss how to forge a path forward in this administration so we can create equal opportunities and foster safer environments for girls and women to play sports.
