House Bill 911 would provide dependents of fallen police officers with continuous health benefits, financial stability and peace of mind during unsettling times. That's why I voted in favor of this important bill during Wednesday's Local Government Committee meeting.
Local control should be center stage. That's why I voted in favor of House Bill 2496, which would allow municipalities to pause consideration of data center developments for six months, so that they can develop the necessary land use and zoning regulations to ensure that any proposal will have no negative impacts on the community.
What’s going on in Harrisburg? Instead of focusing on the state budget, the House continues to spend valuable time on resolutions naming commemorative days, even ones that aren’t tied to our country. It’s frustrating to watch the majority party avoid the real work that Pennsylvanians expect us to get done.
On June 8, House Democrats passed a bill that would raid $30 million from the Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program (PTRR). PTRR helps over 500,000 Pennsylvanians each year. I could not vote for legislation that would rob you of the only relief you might receive to offset your property tax burden.

I had a great time volunteering to serve the famous Farm Show milkshakes with the PA Dairymen’s Association.
On Nov. 15, we gathered to dedicate the Kreutz Creek bridge in Windsor Township to Pvt. Myles Albert Ness, a World War I veteran and York County native. This bridge will forever serve as a reminder of Ness and his service to our country.
In this special interview, I spoke to Ron Cohen, Master Chief, U.S. Navy, Ret. Ron's passion for our country, Armed Forces and patriotic music is clear. I hope hearing his story inspires gratitude for veterans and pride in our country.
In this interview, I had the privilege of sitting down with District 94 resident and veteran Albert Smoker, ET-3, U.S. Navy, Ret. It was an honor to chat with Albert about his time traveling around the country during his service in the Navy.
