Great meeting today with the Coalition of Graduate Employees at Penn State, who voted overwhelmingly to form a union. These workers are critical to the research and educational mission of Penn State. Penn State should respect their democratic voice and drop the appeal to exclude Research Assistants in the union of graduate assistants.

I was sorry to hear that Heidelberg Borough Police Chief Dennis Dixon passed away unexpectedly on Monday May 18. Chief Dixon served Heidelberg for nearly 20 years. His impact and service to the community will never be forgotten. My thoughts are with his family, his fellow officers, and the people he served.

Today we celebrate the incredible women who have helped to shape our lives. I only wish we had more time with my mother who passed away many years ago, but am grateful for such great memories of growing up.
I’m beyond blessed to have an amazing wife and partner in raising our 4 kids. Kelly has constantly put her family’s needs before her own and has been an incredible role model for the kids. HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY

I’m pleased to announce that the House Finance Committee unanimously voted to advance House Bill 2340. This bill encourages full utilization of the malt beverage tax credit by extending the carryforward period and allowing sales to other malt beverage taxpayers.
