Vouchers by any name are a scam to dismantle & defund the public education system. Don't believe me? Look who's lining up behind Lifeline Scholarships. Betsy DeVos, ALEC, and the West Chester Moms for Liberty group are among the anti-public school names on this letter.

My son, Jack, was born with Hirschsprung’s Disease – a rare illness that can be deadly for newborns. He joined me on the House floor to help raise awareness. Hear our story in the video below.

I was so honored to have a front row seat for the moving swearing in ceremony of, @RepMovita , the first Muslim woman to serve in the legislature. A mother, who lost her child to gun violence, instead of laying down, stepped up to make a difference. A brave #mamabear ❤️🇺🇸✊🏻

Women’s rights are human rights. Proud to own the debate with a collective voice for women’s reproductive freedom and to lift up the story of my sister’s brave journey to becoming a special needs mom and advocate.

@EnergyTransfer has pending felony charges, has yet to clean up their mess in Marsh Creek State Park, and has left residents across their path without clean drinking water, but they’re allowed to continue to put pipe in the ground to meet shareholder expectations.
