Thank you to everyone who joined me for my Office Hours event on Saturday! We had great conversations about the pressing issues facing our country. I look forward to sharing your perspectives and insights as I fight for those values in DC in the coming weeks.

The American people won this round, but we are not out of the woods yet. My statement on the Trump administration's decision to rescind its order attempting to freeze federal aid spending:

It was an honor to spend MLK Day at events across PA-05, joining together with neighbors united by our shared belief that service to community holds immense power and there is still so much work to do in service to the cause of justice to bring Dr. King's dream to life. 🧵⬇️

I am so proud of the work my constituent service team does every day to help PA-05 residents navigate federal agencies. Last year, we helped constituents claim more than $4 million owed to them! If you're having an issue with a federal agency, give us a call at 610-626-2020.
