District 19 Update: Work continues on 2025 budget as deadline nears
As we approach the June 30 deadline for finalizing Pennsylvania’s budget, I remain focused on ensuring that every dollar we allocate reflects the values, needs, and priorities of our communities. Budget negotiations are intensifying, and I am committed to advocating for investments that uplift working families, strengthen public health, and build a more equitable economy. 06/16/2025 09:22 AM
Magisterial District 05-2-42 Update: Lawyer of the Day program paused
Magisterial District 05-2-42 Update: Lawyer of the Day program paused
Since late 2022, the Lawyer of the Day program has operated in four local Magisterial District Courts (Homewood, Hill District and both Northside courts). The program sought to bring financial support to tenants facing eviction while also, as the name suggests, providing tenants with in-court legal representation on the day of their hearings (think “public defender” but for lower income tenants). This cooperative effort among RentHelpPGH, Neighborhood Legal Services, Ebony Law and Community Justice Project and other partner organizations such as Just Mediation Pittsburgh, has been connecting tenants with legal representatives and resource navigators to assist them in navigating their eviction and very importantly, accessing needed financial assistance to solve the cause of the eviction. 06/16/2025 09:21 AM

District 20 News: Make the most of summer with free, low-cost family resources
Summer break is right around the corner, and while school might pause for a few months, the opportunities for learning, discovery, and connection certainly don’t have to stop. As your state representative, I’m committed to making sure families in our community are connected to available resources to ensure they have a safe and fun summer. Thankfully, our region is home to a wide range of free and budget-friendly programs that kids — and adults — can enjoy. I encourage you to take full advantage and share these opportunities with anyone who might benefit. 06/11/2025 09:00 AM

District 20 News: Fighting to save Pittsburgh Regional Transit
District 20 News: Fighting to save Pittsburgh Regional Transit
As a state representative serving Allegheny County, I hear from constituents every day who rely on Pittsburgh Regional Transit (PRT) to get to work, the doctor’s office, school, and to see loved ones. Indeed, members of my own staff rely exclusively on PRT to get them to my office to serve you. Public transit isn’t just another line item in the budget — it’s a lifeline for our communities. And right now, as PRT riders already know, that lifeline is in jeopardy. 05/31/2025 08:55 AM

While we get ready to swap our winter gear for summer attire, I want to take a moment to highlight some notable services from my office. 05/28/2025 09:00 AM
