Pennsylvania could require paid family leave — if lawmakers can decide who bears the cost With House passage of a paid family leave bill, one of the key issues dividing lawmakers, largely along party lines, is whether they need to protect businesses from the costs.

PA is THIS close to guaranteeing paid family & medical leave—something 80%+ of voters support. @pahousedems.com got it through the House. Now it’s up to the #PASenate to decide: Stand with working families or keep protecting a broken status quo.

The #PAHouse took a historic step forward by passing HB1800 to codify #marriage equality in state law. The #bipartisan vote was 127-72. Now it’s time for the #PASenate to finish the job and protect #LGBTQ+ families.

Hardworking Pennsylvanians need help NOW. I’m glad we took action to #RaiseTheWage in the #PaHouse because folks are struggling like never before. Sign my petition at RepRoniGreen.com to tell the #PaSenate it's their turn to act to support PA workers and families.

Meanwhile, every state bordering PA has a higher minimum wage, and 22 states have already raised theirs for 2026. The #PAHouse continues to pass bills like HB 2189 to implement a commonsense, minimum wage increase, but the #PASenate continues to ignore our legislation.

Guzman: You Can't Get More Services with Less Funding YouTube video by Pa. House Video

It's concerning that fiscal conservatives want more government services but continue to vote against the funding to provide them. @pahousedems.com have delivered new revenue streams for the #PABudget, but the #PASenate ignores them. Make it make sense! www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRqX...

#PASenate President Kim Ward needs to stop supporting the crimes and chaos that her party has become known for. Pedophiles are bad. Lies are bad. Russia is bad. Pissing off your allies is bad. Paying for healthcare in Argentina but not America is bad. Kim Ward should do some soul searching.

Bipartisan coalition of state lawmakers looks to incentivize 'pro-housing' communities  • Pennsylvania Capital-Star Housing was the topic du jour on Monday, with legislators pitching their solutions and advocates pushing for reform.

Yes, these are all great ideas. But there's one problem: the Crisis is Here, Now.

What PA needs is massive investments in building new public housing & rental assistance.
