I recently shared my concerns over HB1300, the voter suppression bill, and later shared that Governor Wolf vetoed it. In his veto, Governor Wolf cited the unconstitutional and onerous ID rules, that it limited mail-in voting and drop boxes, and that it created the most restrictive voter registration deadline in the country.

Following Mother’s Day weekend, I shared my thoughts in an op-ed regarding initiatives that would benefit a large number of Pennsylvania families. Read more
Following a weekend celebrating Mother's Day, it's relevant to talk about policies that can benefit Pennsylvania moms and their families. Affordable access to child care. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the nation's child care system and revealed long-standing challenges and inequities in how working parents access care. President Joe Biden's American Rescue Plan makes a bold investment of nearly $40 billion to help states address this child care crisis. But how Pennsylvania chooses to invest its share of those funds is largely up to us, and we have both a moral and economic obligation to make child care work better for families and businesses and, therefore, the future of our economy. The Pennsylvania Rescue Plan – House Democrats' proposal for investing the federal stimulus dollars – makes much-needed reforms and improvements to allow parents employed in a post-COVID workforce to get the child care that they need and deserve. The most universal barriers to quality child care and early childhood education are affordability and access. For families living in poverty, child care comprises nearly a third of overall household budget and nationally, about 39% of Black young children live in poverty, compared with just 13% of white children.
