I'm running for re-election alongside a vast coalition of local leaders and working families.
Solidarity is how we will make housing affordable, fully fund our schools, and address the climate crisis.
Solidarity is how we recognize our shared stake in achieving a better world.

Watch @NikilSaval break down a massive list of 400+ bills that @PaHouseDems passed (with one seat majority and mostly bipartisan) but Senate Republicans blocked.
I think a lot of PA folks and press aren’t fully appreciating what a Dem trifecta could mean

We have no more session days scheduled, and the @PASenateGOP walked away from a deal we had made with the Governor and the House to legalize skill games and use the revenue for transit.
Republican inaction hurts small businesses, veterans clubs AND our transportation system.
Had an awesome time taking SEPTA out to Montco to canvass for @ChrisThomasPA.
Chris will help us achieve a Democratic trifecta that fully funds transit, raises the minimum wage, and delivers affordable housing.
Sign up to volunteer. Support our candidates. Let’s win this!
Beautiful day to knock doors in Elizabethtown (and get there by bike and train) for @MaloneForSenate! Voters are tired of corruption and high costs, and want someone like James who will work to address it.

City Council supports the PA Universal Healthcare Act! Thank you so much to my colleagues in council for adding your voices to the calls for the state’s general assembly to pass this bill. The fight for universal healthcare in Pennsylvania is one that we can and must win.

It was a joy to celebrate the renovations of @phillyhomeless’s ground floor facilities! Across our city, no other shelter is as large, nor has as long a history of service. Here, guests are met with care, dignity, respect, and wrap-around services, as well as a warm meal.
Great response on the doors today in SD-24. A group of us took SEPTA regional rail out to North Wales to canvass for Chris Thomas.

Beautiful day to take @SEPTAPHILLY and knock doors for @ChrisThomasPA and the entire @PADemParty slate with @NikilSaval and @PAWorkFamilies.
Why does PA rank towards the bottom of states for school funding? For higher education funding? Why is it the worst among our neighboring states when it comes to our minimum wage? One chart explains it all.
Sharing some reflections from a #WeekWithoutDriving.
Grateful for such an extraordinary experience. As someone who already relies on transit often, I’m now likely to choose alternatives to driving even more frequently. I encourage everyone to consider doing the same!
