State Senator, 1st District, PA. Writing: "Cubed," @nplusonemag, @nytimes, @newyorker. Personal Account. (He/him)

Philadelphia, PA
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.

One of the biggest screens in Center City is getting even bigger: PFS is proud to announce our installation of a set of Century JJ 35/70mm projectors, making us Philly’s exclusive home for films in fabulous 70mm!

An honor to spend time this weekend with residents and elected leaders in Wyoming, PA. I was grateful to be invited there for an affordability town hall. We had an enriching discussion about lowering costs on housing, healthcare, utility bills, and much more. 🧵

From Philadelphia to Luzerne County, working families in Pennsylvania are demanding urgent action from their legislators. That solidarity across our Commonwealth is how we’ll build the momentum to deliver.

It starts by winning a trifecta in November (which includes electing @VoteFern4PA to flip this NEPA district). By finally taxing big corporations and the ultra-wealthy, we can fund the investments our communities need and deserve!

This evening marks the start of Yom Kippur for families across the Commonwealth and around the world. During this sacred time of reflection, forgiveness, and reverence, my team and I send our collective wishes for the year ahead to be filled with peace, wisdom, and love.

Shana Tova! Rosh Hashanah and the Days of Awe begin at sundown, and my team and I wish all who are celebrating very happy new year. May the year ahead be filled with the sweetness that comes from openness and from connection—with each other and with our paths.

Pennsylvania: I can’t overstate how possible winning a Democratic trifecta is this year. But it’s far from guaranteed. We gotta work for it. Volunteer to flip seats: pademsriseup.org/trifecta Donate to flip seats: secure.actblue.com/donate/tr…

A gorgeous morning at Philly’s annual Labor Day Parade. Generations of workers fought for the protections we have today. We honor their victories by continuing this fight until all people have safe working conditions, fair wages, and dignity for our labor.

It is unacceptable for a world-class city like ours to allow its major natural history museum to close. We cannot allow it. My statement ⬇️

We're proud to endorse Chris Thomas for state senate in Pennsylvania’s 24th district. Chris is a longtime champion for working families who will fight to raise the minimum wage, lower the cost of groceries, and take on the companies pushing unregulated data center development.

Count me all-in for expanding our House majority and flipping the Senate in Harrisburg! I had the pleasure recently of canvassing alongside @bradforpa in a must-win district out in Lancaster County. We had some very meaningful conversations at the doors. 🧵

Like many, she’s become disillusioned with our broken politics. But in Brad Chambers, she’s found a fighter she’ll be proud to vote for this November.

The PA Universal Healthcare Act would ensure that all Pennsylvanians and residents of other states who work at least 20 hours per week within our Commonwealth can get comprehensive, high-quality healthcare. My full memo here: palegis.us/senate/co-sponsor…

The corporations calling the shots in Harrisburg are gonna hate us. I’ll always answer the call — for the people, not the powerful.
