As we've seen across our district, communities suffer when rural hospitals close. Sick and injured people don't just go away, they have to find care elsewhere.

up large gaps in their budgets. That may mean reduced staff, longer wait times, and/or less face time with patients.
I am committed to restoring these cuts, making sure that our community members are able to receive necessary care.
For some, clinics like these are their only resource for primary care, mental health care, dental care, or substance abuse services.
Due to the Republican budget bill, hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvanians are expected to be kicked off of Medicaid, meaning clinics like these will have to make
Community Health and Dental Care in Pottstown treats patients regardless of their ability to pay. As a Federally Qualified Health Center, CHDC receives nearly half of its revenue from Medicaid patients.
Touring their new facility, built with matching federal funds from the American Rescue Plan Act, there was a sense of pride and relief. Now, our southernmost residents could safely receive emergency medical care without fearing what would come from an hourlong ride to the hospital.
This led to an urgent need for a stand-alone emergency services center with a permanent home for Southern Chester County Emergency Medical Services–Medic 94.
Hospital closures created a health care desert in the southern part of Chester County. Resulting in dangerously long ambulance rides to overcrowded emergency rooms, the closest being approximately 45 minutes away for most southern Chester County residents.
I'll continue fighting to prevent cuts to this crucial, lifesaving service for our neighbors.
to personally reach those in need during a behavioral health crisis.
They receive over 1,500 calls per month not including their text and email services. I am proud to have voted in favor of the American Rescue Plan Act that provided them with federal funds to help the people of Chester County.
There is a mental health crisis in this country.
I recently met with the dedicated public servants at the Chester County Human Needs Network. This team answers calls from the 988 suicide crisis hotline and employs a mobile crisis response team – trained counselors who are “out in the field”
Voting by mail is nonpartisan and is good for everyone. Republicans vote by mail, Democrats vote by mail. It’s used by our soldiers overseas, by seniors, by working parents, and disabled individuals in addition to millions of other American citizens.
I appreciate the President’s renewed focus on bringing about a ceasefire and establishing peace in the region and I remain committed to providing Ukraine with the resources it needs to end Putin’s years-long war of aggression.
As I have shared, the fight for peace in Ukraine is personal to me. My father fled Ukraine (formerly, Poland) with his mother to escape the Holocaust.
While Republicans are celebrating the passage of this bill, my colleagues and I are in our communities hearing directly from those impacted. Keep calling, keep writing, keep pushing lawmakers to stand up for seniors. It makes a difference.
Medicaid pays for care for 3 in 5 PA nursing home residents and it is estimated that PA will lose $53 billion in federal Medicaid funding over the next 10 years. The Governor's office has estimated 310,000 Pennsylvanians will lose their Medicaid coverage entirely.
Approximately 445,000 seniors and people with disabilities in PA rely on Medicaid to help afford their Medicare expenses, including premiums and out-of-pocket costs.
I have spoken a lot recently about the impact that President Trump's Big Ugly Bill will have on our community. Cuts to SNAP assistance, Medicare and Medicaid, community health programs and more are not just theoretical, they have very real consequences.
Brandywine Valley Active Aging has operated in Coatesville and Downingtown dating back to the 1970's and provides emergency rental assistance, food services, and one-on-one support to seniors.
It is critically important that we protect federal funding for these programs and volunteer our time with local chapters when we're able.

Programs like Meals on Wheels provide a vital service for our community. Not only do they deliver hot meals, but are a consistent smiling face and a potential lifeline for many people that are homebound.
