As a result of the federal government shutdown, LIHEAP applications will now open December 3 - one month after they were initially set to open. This delay is devastating as it will leave more than 300,000 Pennsylvanians without heat this November. Read more here: www.pa.gov/agencies/dhs...

Families cannot go hungry because our elected officials can’t work together!

Due to the federal government shutdown, please note that no SNAP benefits will be issued November and beyond until a budget is passed by congress. In the meantime, contact our U.S. Senators and urge them to get back to work and allow this critical program to continue running.

The time for games and politics is over. Yesterday, we passed a budget for a third time this year in the PA House. My neighbors, schools, non-profits, and businesses are struggling because we are putting politics over people. Now, our Senate colleagues need to do their job and pass this budget.

The Department of Commerce is aware that some Philly businesses have received text messages saying that they’re approved for a grant from the Catalyst Fund and to provide their banking information. This message is a SCAM – do not click any links, reply or provide any personal information.

The Department of Revenue is aware that residents are receiving SMS text message scams targeting taxpayers. These texts are not from the Phila Dept of Rev, and the Dept of Rev will never ask for bank or refund payment information over text. Do not click links and block unknown senders.

On this day 24 years ago, our nation witnessed one of the deadliest terror attacks in world history. Today, we hold in our hearts the victims of that horrific day and their loved ones. We also remember the first responders for their brave, heroic actions.

We have done our part in the PA House, passing multiple bills to fund transit, yet Senate Republicans continued inaction keeps stalling this needed funding. Make your voice heard and urge Senate Republicans to pass recurring funding for public transit.

Tell Senate Republicans to Get Back to Work so YOU Can Get to Work

The budget is overdue and transit systems you and your loved ones depend on are going to start cutting routes and canceling services like buses, trains and rides to the doctor for seniors. The House passed a transit plan that delivers for YOU and also invests in fixing roads and bridges...

PennDOT has approved SEPTA’s request to use capital assistance funds to resume all routes on September 14. However, this is not the long-term solution we need for public transit funding, and there will be fare increases intact with this.

I hate traffic with a passion. Soon, hundreds of thousands of cars will flood our streets across the state—longer commutes, less time with our families, missed appointments, and parents scrambling to get their kids to school. #PASenate, get back to work! #FundSEPTA youtu.be/M-Po7aoMwQE

I am still urging my Senate colleagues to do their job and finally fund mass transit. My bill, HB 1788, passed the State House with Republican and Democratic support because it ties accountability with funding, without raising taxes on anyone. Join me in urging them:

Due to the Senate’s political games and inaction to fund mass transit, our community will see cuts to SEPTA routes and services in three days. These cuts are going to hurt many of us, and I am disheartened.
