Learning to read is the foundation for success in school, the workforce, and life. That`s why I was proud to join the Pennsylvania Literacy Coalition to discuss the importance of implementing Act 47, which will bring evidence-based reading instruction, educator training, and universal K-3 literacy screening to schools across the Commonwealth.

Passing the law was an important first step, but successful implementation is what will make a difference for Pennsylvania students. By investing in literacy, we are investing in our children, our communities, and our future.

I had a great time touring the @boyertown.library and meeting some of their wonderful bear mascots along the way! 🐻📚

Libraries play such an important role in our communities by providing educational resources, programs, and welcoming spaces for residents of all ages.

Thank you to the staff and volunteers for the warm welcome and for all you do to serve the Boyertown community! ...

I was pleased to join Rep. Donna Scheuren to present state grant funding for several important community improvement projects in Lower Frederick and New Hanover townships.

Lower Frederick Township - received more than $158,000 in LSA funding to support the purchase of a new police vehicle, parking lot enhancements, township building renovations, and the installation of a new digital communication sign.

In New Hanover Township, a $100,000 Greenways, Trails, and Recreation grant will support the Moyer Road Meadows and Trail Improvement Project, helping enhance outdoor recreation opportunities for residents and visitors alike.

These investments will help strengthen public safety, improve local infrastructure, and enhance quality of life throughout our region. ...

On Monday, I was proud to present state grant funding with PA State Rep. Donna Scheuren for two important projects that will improve public safety and infrastructure in our community.

In Douglass Township (Montgomery County) more than $232,000 in Multimodal Transportation Fund support will help move forward the long-awaited replacement of the County Line Road bridge over Swamp Creek. After years of delays caused by rising costs, environmental concerns, and easement challenges, this project is finally advancing to address deteriorating conditions and ongoing safety concerns on the bridge.

I also joined Good Will Steam Fire Engine Company to announce more than $103,000 in LSA Statewide funding to purchase and install power-stretcher equipment in their ambulances. This equipment will help paramedics and EMTs safely load and transport patients while reducing physical strain on first responders.

Thank you to our local leaders, emergency personnel, and community partners for their continued commitment to keeping our residents safe! ...

I had the opportunity to join an important conversation about #AI deepfakes and what every parent should know.

As AI technology continues to evolve, so do the risks facing children and families. Deepfakes are already having real impacts in our schools and communities, and it’s critical that we stay informed and prepared.

I appreciated the chance to speak alongside experts, advocates, and families impacted by this issue, and to discuss practical steps parents and community leaders can take to help protect young people in the digital age ...

It was a pleasure visiting Boyertown Middle School East to speak with students involved in the Youth and Government Club.

It’s inspiring to see these young leaders actively participating in the democratic process and developing the skills that will serve them well in the future! ✨

Last week, the Montgomery County Police Officers Annual Memorial Ceremony served as a powerful reminder of the courage and sacrifice carried by those who wear the badge.

We paused to honor the officers who gave their lives protecting our communities and to remember the families, friends, and fellow officers who continue to carry their loss each day. Their service, bravery, and unwavering commitment to others will never be forgotten.

May we always remember the heroes who ran toward danger so others could live in safety, and may their legacy continue to inspire us all.
