On Saturday, I had the honor of hosting my annual Veterans Appreciation Breakfast, one of my favorite events of the year.
It’s always incredibly moving to gather with the men and women who have worn our nation’s uniform, hear their stories, and thank them for their service and sacrifice.
I’m grateful to every veteran, family member, and caregiver who joined us, and to the community partners who helped make the event so special.
To all who have served: I see you, I appreciate you, and I will continue to advocate for you.

This week, I hosted a #PASenate Majority Policy Committee hearing focused on how #artificialintelligence is being misused to exploit children.
Law enforcement and child advocates voiced strong support for Senate Bill 1050, which I sponsored with @senatorscottmartinpa and @senatorlisabaker , to require reporting of all child sexual abuse material, including AI-generated images.

During Red Ribbon Week, I joined PA State Rep. Milou Mackenzie and @the_schwenkfelder in Pennsburg as @projectlive_upperperk planted bright red tulips at the Schwenkfelder Library and Museum.
The red tulips represent Project Live’s ongoing mission to educate, support, and guide individuals, students, and families toward healthy and positive choices.
Their work continues to make an impact right here in Montgomery County, and each tulip planted stands as a visible reminder of that commitment. 🌷
