#Pittsburgh's rainfall extremes aren't just your imagination. Despite this important data, the federal government is pushing some irrational and ill-advised rollbacks and climate denials right now. Read the article linked below, then check this chart: www.climatecentral.org/climate-matt...

In light of recent announcements about a flush of data centers coming to Pennsylvania, this is a timely read about the impact on neighbors of such energy- and water-needy centers.

The Trump administration has frozen nearly $7 BILLION in public school funding, money schools count on to fund important programs! Congress has the power to demand the release of the funds. Please, click the link to send a letter to our Reps! social.redwine.blue/s/RUvHNhrS

Wonderful turnout for the first @shalerdemcommittee.bsky.social summer picnic. Hopefully it becomes an annual tradition!

If you’re looking for a deep dive on the #PA #budget (deadline passed) and funding public education, here’s a great read from @penncapital-star.com.

Cyber charter schools must weekly “ensure each enrolled student is able to be visibly seen and communicated with in real time,” inspired by the death of a cyber charter student in 2024. PA Sen Lindsey Williams said, “Cyber charter schools need to put eyes on kids at least once a week.”

A holiday #FourthofJuly reminder from Dave Hess at @paenvironmentnews.bsky.social that we have faced challenges and won hard-fought successes — here in #Pennsylvania and in the U.S.

My statement on my NO vote on the "Big Ugly Bill" ⤵️

PA Governor #Shapiro @governor.pa.gov does the math for the Republican delegation. In case they want to see the impact on their neighbors.

For those in @deluzio.house.gov district, he is taking our calls. Why? Because he’s not fearful of his constituents, and he believes in his vote to fight the harm throughout this #ugly #GOP-pushed bill.

We have another chance to save democracy, and our neighbors. Now is the time to call Congress.

Call PA #senators to stop #Republicans’ bill that would kick 17 million people off health care, cut food benefits & cancel clean energy investments just to give billionaires another tax break. It’s #socialism for the rich. ~ Sen. John Fetterman: 202-224-4254 ~ Sen. Dave McCormick: 202- 224-6324

Costs are still rising, the economy is shrinking, and Republicans are focused on passing the biggest job-killing bill in American history. Crazy stuff.

Honoring Juneteenth today — a day that marks freedom, resilience, and the enduring fight for equality. Let's reflect, celebrate, and keep pushing for justice. #Juneteenth #FreedomDay

Our Rep. Lindsay Powell @reppowell.com reminds undergrad juniors, seniors, grad or law students @ a PA school to check out this great bipartisan #PAHouse #Fellowship opportunity! Deadline for this compensated work is July 1. Learn civics in the halls of the PA State Capitol!

Today, spare a moment to honor the #American flag. It works hard to unite, inspire and compel each of us to act with dignity, respect and inclusion. Every star and stripe reminds us of our obligation to uphold the US #Constitution and to enjoy freedom under this majestic banner! Happy #FlagDay!
