    Throughout our history, the shining promise of our Constitution has been the promise of self-government—of, by, and for the people—where every eligible citizen has the opportunity to vote.  Despite the Trump Administration’s attempts to undermine the midterm elections with confusion or misinformation, our American electoral system is strong. Tomorrow, I'm leading a Spotlight Hearing to explore how you can make sure your voice is heard as you cast your vote, and how election officials and volunteers ensure our elections are accurate and secure. Tune in at 2 pm.

    Many Pennsylvanians are already stretching every dollar to feed their families and afford health care. According to a new analysis from the Pennsylvania Policy Center, 4 in 5 households that use SNAP also have somebody enrolled in Medicaid. The changes made to SNAP and Medicaid by the GOP's Big Ugly Bill will lead to greater food insecurity and loss of health care coverage among vulnerable families.

    I joined the Food First Health Summit at WHYY for a panel on food and nutrition policy, including the role federal policy can play in encouraging nutrition interventions to save money and get better health outcomes. We had a critical discussion about how smart federal policy should expand the use of food assistance as medicine and encourage healthy meals at schools. Photo credit: American Summer

    Since colonial times, the United States Postal Service has performed an essential, trusted service for Americans. I recently checked in with members of the American Postal Workers Union Local #3800, which represents postal workers in Delaware, Chester, and Montgomery Counties. We talked about the challenges facing federal workers and how the Trump Administration has weakened the USPS by closing local offices, cutting services, leaving jobs unfilled, and lowering service standards.

    RT @WhipKClark: The midterms are about two very different visions for America. Democrats are fighting for you and to lower your costs. Republicans are just helping Trump and billionaires get richer. It’s that simple.

    Abortion care is still legal in Pennsylvania, but since Roe v. Wade was overturned, agencies like the Delaware County Women’s Center have had to navigate an increasingly complex landscape, including an influx of patients who cannot get the reproductive healthcare they need anywhere else. I appreciated the opportunity to meet with the National Abortion Federation and this local provider to discuss reproductive rights, current challenges to abortion access, and the threats faced by abortion providers from extremist activity at their clinics.

    Standard time is the safest option for our children, not to mention backed by science as the healthiest option for our sleep patterns. That's why I introduced the bipartisan Sunshine for Our Kids Act.
    Save Standard Time @SaveStandard
    Clocks go back to Standard Time, making it light at 7am again. This is a blessing for kids and adults who have school and work. Holler for permanent Standard Time. Ditch Daylight Saving Time!

    Each state has different laws about who may be in a voting location and what they may do while there. Voters who have concerns on Election Day should speak with a poll worker or reach out to their local election office. They can also contact the nonpartisan Election Protection Hotline at 866-OUR-VOTE.

    Today marks eight years since the horrific antisemitic attack at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh. As we remember those whose lives were taken, my heart is with their loved ones and the entire Jewish community. We must commit ourselves to rejecting hatred and bigotry and to working to end the epidemic of gun violence in our country.

    The price of home heating oil has nearly doubled to over $6 since Trump started the war in Iran.

    Why is Trump's DOJ refusing to release ALL of the Epstein files or prosecute the abusers identified in those files? Is it because the files keep implicating Trump? We need a special prosecutor to get to the truth.

    🚨BREAKING: Judiciary Democrats’ report details mounting evidence linking Trump to Epstein’s criminal activities and DOJ’s cover-up; specific accounts involving 11 women provide more evidence of potential sex crimes.

    One of the foundations of a functioning democracy is an informed, engaged electorate. That's why I introduced the Teaching Engaged Citizenship Act to expand civic education in our public schools and prepare the next generation of leaders.

    Trump is gutting the Clear Air Act and poisoning our air by "prioritizing the economic interests of corporations and easing costs for polluting industries." Congress needs to end this administration's pay-to-play corruption.

    As mergers and corporate takeovers have consolidated power in the meat and poultry industry, consumers and producers have paid the price. That’s why I introduced the Packers and Stockyards Improvements Act to lower costs for consumers and strengthen protections for our ranchers and farmers.
