    Today, Governor Shapiro was unable to purchase Alcohol without his I.D. But here in PA, you can still vote without I.D. How does that make sense? 🤦
    Replying to @StephenJ_Caruso
    Shapiro forgot his ID and couldn't buy his spiked lemonade.

    As Vice Chairman, I was happy to preside over the Banking and Insurance Committee today. Senate Bill 8 was unanimously passed. This bill would remove out-of-pocket costs for lifesaving BRCA genetic testing and MRI/ mammograms for women. It now moves to the full #PASenate.

    Not only did Cornwall-Lebanon School District Senior Chloe Hains become a pilot at 17 but has also been accepted to three U.S. Military Academies. She has chosen to attend the U.S. Naval Academy and will be leaving in June.

    Congratulations to Amelia Summers, a sophomore at Annville-Cleona High School, for winning the 2023 Pennsylvania American Legion Oratorical Contest. Her winning speech was about the U.S. Constitution and how it empowers young people.

    Today, the Senate Education Committee passed my bill requiring a financial literacy course be taught in high school. Financial decisions made in early adulthood pave the way for success or perpetual dependence on family members and the government.

    I was happy to recognize the Cedar Crest High School Quiz Bowl Team with a Senate Citation for their impressive win at the 2022 @WGAL TV-8 Brain Busters Championship this past year. The team captured the title by defeating Trinity High School in the finale @CLSD_Schools

    It was great to meet with Chris Seldomridge, an athletic trainer from @CLSD_Schools. We discussed upcoming legislation effecting athletic trainers throughout the state. I also found out he is a fellow alumnus of @TheHillSchool.

    I was saddened to have learned of the recent passing of Lebanon County Commissioner Bill Ames. In the past few years, I’ve gotten to know Bill well enough to call him a friend and mentor. Today I ask you keep the Ames family in your thoughts and prayers during these trying times.

    Wow! What an accomplished young woman. Chloe Hains received her pilots license at 17 and now has been appointed into the U.S. Naval Academy, United States Military Academy, and the United States Air Force Academy. Congratulations. 👏

    I really enjoyed attending the Annual Cedar Crest FFA Banquet. There are some truly great future leaders among the #FFA. Cedar Crest has done an outstanding job with agricultural education which is vital to our State. Congrats to all the members who received awards!
