When we first passed Whole-Home Repairs, we hoped it would offer a blueprint for other states grappling with how to preserve aging housing stock and protect their residents. Today’s passage of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act shows the realization of this hope.

My letter to Drexel and the Academy of Natural Sciences Board. The museum is of incalculable value to our region and to international scientific and cultural fields. Philadelphia bears a serious responsibility to do everything we can to preserve it at its current location.

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.

The best ribbon cuttings are the ones where @SenatorSaval and I get to show kids the proper way to climb a jungle gym. Recently, we joined the Greenfield community to celebrate a schoolyard improved with state grant funding. But the real story is that hundreds of kids now have a better place to learn, play, and grow.

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.

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 ⬇️

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.

A momentous time in our home, with Ishaan in 2nd grade and Mayukh in kindergarten! Our family is one of hundreds of thousands heading back to @PHLschools. Each year, I’m more awed by the care of our educators, the commitment of our staff, & the brilliance of our students. #phled

Last night, my office hosted our first Family Movie Night in collaboration with @marksquilla @SenatorSaval & @RepBenWaxman and we’d like to say THANK YOU to all the families who joined us! 🍿🎬
Our goal was to provide a safe, fun evening for families as we prepare to send our young people back to school, and we did exactly that! They enjoyed community resources, activities, music, free book bags, cotton candy, popcorn and more.
Thank you to all of our resource providers and our sponsors: Comcast Spectacor, @sixers @PennMedicine & Tough Luv Foundation for helping us make it all happen with a special thank you to @SenatorSaval for providing the water ice!
We can’t wait to do it again next Friday, August 28th at Burholme Park!

I’ve visited the Weitzman Jewish History Museum frequently as Governor — it's a space where folks from all walks of life can learn about Jewish history and how that history shapes our country safely, and without fear.
This act of vandalism is just the latest example of increased antisemitic attacks across our Commonwealth and our country.
Acts of hate against any group have no place here. And no matter who you pray to or how you worship, I want you to know that you have a home here in Pennsylvania.

Wildfire smoke from up north is causing dangerous air quality here in PA and Philly. Limit your time and activities outdoors, and check on neighbors and loved ones who might be especially sensitive to poor air quality.

This year’s budget makes strides to support Pennsylvanians at all moments of their lives, but to truly meet this moment of incredible financial hardship, our constituents need their representatives to be loud, clear, and uncompromising. This is a budget of missed opportunity.
