I had the opportunity to stop by Douglass Township Police Department of Montgomery County to see the equipment they purchased through a $60,245 grant I helped secure last year. This funding allowed the Police Department to upgrade critical tools, including emergency radios and non-lethal tasers.
These enhancements will strengthen public safety and improve emergency response throughout the township. I’m committed to supporting initiatives that give our first responders the resources they need to protect our communities.

I recently visited the Upper Perk Police Department to see the body-camera equipment they purchased through a $26,000 grant I helped secure last year.
This technology is a critical tool for promoting public safety, accountability, and transparency values that strengthen trust between law enforcement and the community.

I recently had the opportunity to attend the @wmctc_media Culinary Arts Department’s White House Student State Dinner Project, and it was truly impressive.
From a thoughtfully crafted, multi-course menu inspired by Pennsylvania’s farm-to-table traditions to the professionalism and creativity on display, these students showed what hard work and hands-on education can achieve.
Under the guidance of former White House Social Secretary Deesha Dyer, they delivered an experience to be proud of. ✨🍽️

Budget Hearing Q&A: Corrections/Parole Board
Corrections officers at SCI Phoenix work tirelessly to keep our communities safe but sometimes struggle with many hours of mandatory overtime. During PA Senate budget hearings, I asked Department of Corrections how we can alleviate this burden.
27 empty buildings. $20.7 million in annual costs. During this week’s budget hearings, we uncovered the staggering cost of maintaining surplus state properties. I’m working with colleagues to turn these liabilities into assets for our local communities! #PABudget
Yesterday’s #PABudget hearings with the @pastatepolice revealed a major breach in protocol. After the 2025 mansion attack, the Governor bypassed secure locations to move his family back to their personal residence. Why the risk?
Budget Hearing Q&A: Human Services Pt. 2
During PA Senate budget hearings, I asked @pahumanservices if there was any room to cut from their general operations budget as we work to reduce our spending. Finding efficiencies is critical to preventing future tax increases.
