Reminder for Frank Farry, the Senate GOP is standing in the way of:
- raising the minimum wage
- improving our schools
- funding transit
- legalizing marijuana
Want to stop getting blamed? Stop standing in the way of improving life in PA.
State Republicans were already happy to follow Trump’s order to gerrymander maps to help keep the GOP in power in the U.S. House.
The recent SCOTUS ruling to gut the Voting Rights Act will only let them go further. We have a plan to stop them: DLCC.org/TargetMap
PA's minimum wage has been stuck at $7.25 an hour for nearly 20 years. When Senate Democrats forced a vote to finally raise it, Sen. Frank Farry's response was to point to the teenagers working at Sesame Place. Pennsylvania workers don't need more excuses. They need a raise.
Public transit funding is a statewide need. In all 67 counties people depend on it to get to work, the doctor and so much more.

Who you live with should be your decision, not the government's. That's why I voted YES on @RepTarik's bill, the “Golden Girls Law,” which I'm a co-sponsor on. If signed into law, this would remove unnecessary occupancy restrictions and expand affordable shared housing options for seniors, young adults, and working families. realtor.com/advice/buy/penns…
My mom’s stroke showed me why paid family leave can’t wait — families need time to care without losing pay. I fought to give our caucus a real leave program; now I’m urging the Senate to act. Stand with me: repmcclinton.comÂ

Yesterday HB1678 passed the House 139-63. As Finance Chair, I was pleased to work with the prime sponsor, @RepFiedler to get this important piece of legislation passed. Be sure to contact your State Senator and urge them to pass it as well!
.@joshshapiropa and I will always defend our democracy – ensuring that our elections remain free, fair, safe, and secure in Pennsylvania.

Our Target Races are a core part of our national strategy to protect, expand, and build Dem power across America’s state legislatures. These are the highest-stakes elections at this ballot level and are must-win campaigns to continue building Dem power: DLCC.org/TargetRaces
It’s National Guard Day here in Pennsylvania! I’m proud of the men and women who are dedicated to serving both our nation and our Commonwealth, they are some of the finest our country has to offer.
Pennsylvania households cannot handle another rate hike. Today, the House Consumer Protection, Utilities, and Technology Committee voted out the Return on Equity bill with BIPARTISAN support! This bill w/ @RepBurgos is one step in making life more affordable for working families.
HB 37 Allowing Counties to Pre-Canvass Mail Ballots passed in the PA House. I’m proud to sponsor and vote YES for this bill.
It’s time PA joins 44 other red & blue states that allow election officials to begin processing mail in ballots prior to the election.🇺🇸
