A senseless shooting at UPMC Memorial Hospital in York—my hometown. A place of healing turned into a tragedy. My family grieves for the family of the heroic West York Borough Police Officer Andrew Duarte who put his life on the line to protect others.

I have met with most of the cabinet nominees and have carefully watched their confirmation hearings. After considering what’s at stake, I have voted against moving forward to the confirmation of Ms. Gabbard and Mr. Kennedy, and will be voting NO on their confirmations.

Last year, I called out the dangers of Project 2025 and the damage it’d do to our country. Americans were assured the Trump team had no ties to it—then nominated one of its authors to lead OMB. My view has not changed and I will be a hard NO on Mr. Vought.

I’ve been in contact with Philly Mayor Cherelle Parker and awaiting further information on the tragic small plane crash in Northeast Philly. For folks in the area, please follow guidance from local officials and police officers.

Criminalizing women and doctors for making their own health care decisions is outrageous. Those decisions should be between her and her doctor—nobody else. This indictment is unacceptable.

I made a commitment to stand with union members across our commonwealth who fought for three decades for a wage increase. We finally got it done. 💯 penncapital-star.com/government-p...

Took my best girl out for Sunday breakfast at the iconic Round the Clock Diner in York. Her call: grits + steals my pumpernickel toast 🫠 My call: egg white omelette, broccoli, light on sausage and cheese, and burnt hash browns (as burnt as the law allows).

It started on my roof and it ends here: Stood with United Steelworkers then, throughout, today, and always—that will never change. Union steel in the Valley is sacred and must endure. My vote + voice follows that spirit, the unions, and the union way of life.

Wishing yinz and youse a very Merry Braddock Christmas! 🎁🎄
