Wade, states throughout the nation stripped the rights to access to reproductive health care and limited what had previously been readily available for nearly 50 years,” said Krueger, who represents portions of Delaware County and is a member of the House Majority Leadership Team, serving as the House Majority Caucus Administrator. “This decision not only threatens public health in states that limited access to reproductive health care, but it also threatens public health in states like Pennsylvania – where abortion is safe and legal – by overwhelming health systems with the increased demand coming from out of state to receive essential health care.” Read more

Leanne Krueger’s legislative district were awarded $75,000 each in state grants from the Pennsylvania Department of Education to enable more high school students to enroll in dual credit programs, giving them more opportunities to chart their own course and prepare for successful careers. “Congratulations to Delaware County Technical High School and Penn-Delco School District for being awarded this well-deserved state funding,” Krueger, D-Delaware, said. “Investing in dual credit programs improves student outcomes—helping learners prepare for college and setting them up for future success in higher education.” The $75,000 grant can be used to expand equitable and innovative dual credit opportunities for all secondary school students, including students experiencing educational instability, students enrolled in career and technical education programs, low-income students, and historically underserved student groups.
