Meeting with community groups, celebrating retirements, signing bills— it was a busy week in Harrisburg! Grateful for the opportunity to learn from and connect with the Pennsylvanians I am privileged to serve 💙
Sometimes one little change can make a BIG difference. The House passed a bill allowing Pennsylvanians with communication barriers to voluntarily add a designation to their driver’s license helping make interactions on the road a little easier to navigate. #PAHouse

Yesterday, Rep. Andre Carroll created "Kada Scott Day." The #PaHouse offered our deepest condolences to her parents and family.
We continue to mourn her devastating and tragic killing almost one year ago.
Kada you are still shining. Your light will never go out!

Meeting with community partners and welcoming guests to the Capitol is such a rewarding part of being Speaker! It was great to see so many old friends and new faces this week in Harrisburg. These connections are what make our Democracy strong!
#MadameSpeaker #SessionWeek
This week, we bid a fond farewell to colleagues who are wrapping up their time as PA Reps.
I'm highlighting 3 of our Chairs, who are retiring after decades of service, starting with Rep. Mary Jo Daley, Chair of the Tourism & Economic & Recreational Development Committee.
Safe schools = students who can focus on learning. 🏫 The House passed legislation requiring schools to consider panic alarm systems during their annual security assessments. Another step toward safer classrooms across Pennsylvania. #PAHouse #MadameSpeaker

AI can do a lot. But making unchecked decisions about your healthcare shouldn’t be one of them. The House advanced legislation to put safeguards around how AI can be used in healthcare. Technology is changing and we’re making sure protections keep up. #PAHouse
