Harrisburg, October 10 — On Wednesday, the Pennsylvania legislature passed legislation (H.B.2127), which directs the PA Department of Health to create a public awareness campaign around perinatal and postpartum depression. The bill was introduced by state Reps. Elizabeth Fiedler, D-Phila., Gina Curry, D-Delaware, and Lisa Borowski, D-Delaware. “As a mom of two, I know that even during the immense joy of bringing a baby into the world, mothers can struggle with postpartum depression,” Fiedler said. “New moms should not have to deal with the shame and isolation that often accompany this common, treatable heath condition. This new public awareness campaign is critical to increasing education, reducing stigma and saving lives.” “This bill is not just a legislative measure; it is a critical lifeline for countless families, addressing the postpartum challenges of depression, psychosis, and other perinatal mental health issues head-on. It marks a crucial first step in providing the education and resources needed to ensure that birthing individuals understand they are not alone in their struggles,” Curry said. Maternal mental health conditions are the leading cause of pregnancy-associated death in the commonwealth, according to the Pennsylvania Maternal Mortality Review Committee. Nearly 75% of mothers affected receive no treatment. To improve maternal health outcomes, H.B. 2127 Read more

MEDIA, Sept. 10 -- U.S. Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon, D-Delaware/Chester/Montgomery, state Rep. Jennifer O’Mara, D-Delaware, and other members of the PA House Democratic Southeast Delegation celebrated the recent enactment of state Rep. Elizabeth Fiedler’s Solar for Schools program Monday morning. Solar for Schools is a new state grant program designed to help school districts across Pennsylvania install solar panels on school grounds or roofs. The grants will cover up to 50% of the cost of solar projects for schools and can be paired with federal funding available through the Inflation Reduction Act. “My colleagues and I in Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act. This provides incentives for schools, nonprofits, and houses of worship to deploy wind, solar, and other renewable energy technologies to generate clean electricity,” Scanlon said. “I'm so excited that decades after I was on the school board, our state legislature, led by Representative Fiedler, stepped up and took this really important step so our school districts can do renovations, implement solar energy and other clean energy options, and reap the savings of those options. The IRA is an essential step, but it can’t be the last step.” "Solar for Schools is not just an opportunity to bring clean energy and good jobs to our school communities. It’s an innovative way to pair state and federal funds to benefit Pennsylvania’s Read more
