This is why we are fighting: Not only have Republicans cut nearly a trillion dollars in federal Medicaid spending, leading to hospital closures, but they’re also jacking up costs on Americans who get their healthcare coverage through the ACA/Pennie in PA. www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...
Trump and the GOP are sticking Pennsylvanians with a massive healthcare bill | Opinion
Not only have Republicans cut nearly a trillion dollars in federal Medicaid spending nationwide, but they’re also jacking up costs on people who get their healthcare coverage through the ACA.

Thank you to everyone who attended our Service Academy information session at Valley Forge Military Academy & College. We were grateful to be joined by our PA-05 Service Academy Nomination Board and representatives from all military academies, ROTC, and the Sea Cadets.

Pennsylvania families can't afford higher premiums just because DC Republicans chose to prioritize their billionaire donors over Americans. Congress needs to extend ACA subsidies now, so that families can keep their healthcare coverage. triblive.com/local/region...
Pa. families risk higher premiums as leaders urge feds to save insurance tax credits
Indiana County resident Tony Gonzales and his wife are just two of the almost half a million Pennsylvanians who could be hit with sharp health insurance price hikes next year. The college professor sa...

We discussed what to expect in the upcoming SCOTUS term and the importance of the Court upholding the constitutional separation of powers and the rule of law in the face of executive overreach and Congressional paralysis.

I'm joining my @democrats-judiciary.house.gov colleagues to demand access to the Homan tapes. The White House shouldn't be bought and paid for, and the American people deserve to know if the administration can be bribed with cash.

White House knew Homan had accepted $50K to influence contracts. They appointed him anyways. Then they disbanded the DOJ's Public Integrity unit and quashed the Homan investigation. There's no end to the corruption in Trump's White House. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

RFK Jr.'s vaccine panel withdrew MMRV vaccines for children under 4, compromising life-saving preventative care for uninsured children. I'm demanding stronger guardrails for HHS by cosponsoring the Family Vaccine Protection Act so all Americans have access to vaccines. www.wsj.com/health/rfk-j...
RFK Jr.-Backed Panel Advises Against MMRV Combo Vaccine for Young Children
New members of a key committee tweak routine childhood vaccine guidance as some states and insurers go their own way.

You can take the data away, but you can't change the facts. Rising grocery costs, slashing SNAP benefits, and struggling food banks are all the result of the Trump Administration's policies. Americans don't need numbers to tell them when their stomachs are growling.

The Trump administration is ending a decades-long effort to track food security, calling it “politicized,” at a time when many Americans are struggling to get proper nutrition or enough to eat.

I was grateful to meet with CAIR Philadelphia and constituents from across PA-05 for a thoughtful discussion on the war in Gaza, discrimination faced by our Muslim neighbors, and attacks on free speech by the Trump Administration.
