Abortion is still legal in Pennsylvania. However, access hinges on the Governor’s race in November. We must work hard to elect @JoshShapiroPA as our next Governor.
HEY PENNSYLVANIANS! If you voted by mail or with a provisional ballot, you may need to take action TODAY to confirm your ID and make sure your vote was counted.

Make sure your voice is heard

I have dedicated my life to making sure Pennsylvanians’ voices are heard, whether on the floor of the Senate or in a free and fair election. It has been made clear there are more than 100,000 votes still to be counted. Pennsylvania is where our democratic process was born. We must allow that process to play out and ensure that every vote that is eligible to be counted will be counted. That is what Pennsylvania deserves.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (@AP) — Pennsylvania’s highest court on Wednesday said people whose mail ballots are rejected for not following procedures in state law can cast provisional ballots, a decision sure to affect some of the thousands of mail-in votes likely to be rejected this fall.

My local side of the ballot:
✅ @marygayscanlon for U.S. House
✅ @amandaforpa for State Senate
✅ @RepTimBriggs for State House
Every race. Every vote!

David McCormick bet against American steel companies while he was a hedge fund CEO.
I bet on Pennsylvania every time.

While David McCormick was managing money for Saudi’s oil company, I was fighting for Pennsylvania’s energy industry.
That’s why I’m supported by the United Mine Workers who do that critical work here in our Commonwealth.

.@Bob_Casey stands with Pennsylvania’s women and trusts them to make their own health care decisions.
Can’t say the same for the #ConnMan

FACT CHECK: David McCormick is lying to you about his position on abortion.
He said overturning Roe would make him “very, very happy” and praised the Dobbs decision as a “huge victory.”
Hey @DaveMcCormickPA - access to health care shouldn’t be a state by state basis. Remember Amber Thurman in Georgia? She died because of her state’s extreme position.

I passed a law to stop fentanyl trafficking.
My opponent?
He invested millions in China’s largest producer of fentanyl AND opposed the bipartisan bill to secure the border.

Extraordinary for JD Vance to invoke a friend who needed an abortion, while appearing on behalf of the president who ended American women’s right to choose.

Forty point difference with undecided voters on their abortion answers. Widest gap I’ve ever seen in debate dials.

Let’s be clear: This is illegal and unconstitutional. The American people had voted. The courts had ruled. The Electoral College had met and voted. The Governor in every state had certified the results and sent a legal slate of electors to the Congress to be counted. The Vice President has no constitutional authority to tell states to submit alternative slates of electors because his candidate lost. That is tyranny. Our institutions held on Jan 6 because Mike Pence refused to violate his oath to the Constitution. Trump picked JD Vance because Vance will do whatever Trump wants, including violating the Constitution. They are both far too dangerous to serve. It’s our duty to stop them.

Maybe someone who doesn't understand what a tariff actually is shouldn't be in charge of our trade policy. Just a thought.
Democrats and progressives did not want repro rights to go back to the states.
No politician should be making healthcare decisions for us.

This is huge!!!!
Huge congrats to @PrisonPolicy for all the work they put into this.
The cost of a call from Dauphin County Prison is about to drop from 19 cents per minute to, at most, 7 cents per minute.
The price of video calls will also be cut in half.
BREAKING: We just voted to end exorbitant phone and video call rates that have burdened incarcerated people and their families for decades.

Today, @SenJudySchwank and I circulated a co-sponsorship memo announcing our intent to introduce an Abortion Protections Legislative Package.
This package will protect patients and providers - we need to pass it with urgency.
