Thank you, @RepOMara, for sharing your story. The anti-choice bills being pushed by Republicans in Pennsylvania are cruel. Politics have no place in a doctor's office. I won’t let our commonwealth go backward on reproductive rights. — PolitiTweet.org

I feel lucky to be Sarah and Katie's dad every day. Happy #FathersDay to all the Pennsylvania dads. It's the best job in the world. https://t.co/6uqLShzTP3 — PolitiTweet.org

Today we celebrate a turning point in our nation's history. At the same time, we must recommit ourselves to fighting for still-needed changes to ensure Black lives matter, Black culture is celebrated, and Black stories are told. #Juneteenth — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

I'm proud that #Juneteenth became a state holiday in Pennsylvania in 2019 — and even prouder that #Juneteenth just became national holiday. Freedom for all isn't fully realized until every American is truly free. And we still have a lot of work to do. — PolitiTweet.org

I will always defend our democracy and the right to vote for every Pennsylvanian. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

We have an opportunity to put aside partisan differences and pass a few simple changes that are supported by members on both sides of the aisle. But any bill that attempts to silence the voice of Pennsylvanians – regardless of political party – is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

There are basic ways to improve election administration without disenfranchising voters: ▪️ Give counties more time to pre-canvass ballots. ▪️ Increase pay for election workers. ▪️ Provide counties critical funding. We should build on our election progress, not sabotage it. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

I won't be lectured on the importance of election integrity by the same people who wrote a letter begging Congress to throw out Pennsylvanians’ lawfully cast votes only a few months ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

Pennsylvania had a free and secure election in 2020. That's a fact. Many Republicans have spent the past year spreading conspiracy theories because they don’t like the outcome. Now they’re trying to use their own lies as an excuse to pass a bill creating barriers to voting. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

Today I joined @PAStateDept in Delco to talk about the bill Republicans are disguising as election reform. There are uncontroversial changes we can make to improve election administration. Some of them are even included in this bill. But disenfranchising voters isn't an option. — PolitiTweet.org

The Affordable Care Act is here to stay. It’s a great day for the millions of Pennsylvanians who depend on the ACA for health care coverage, protections for pre-existing conditions, substance use disorder treatment, and more. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

My first act as governor was to ban members of the executive branch from accepting gifts from lobbyists. The legislature needs to do the same. Pennsylvanians deserve and expect accountability from their lawmakers. This is what I'm fighting for: https://t.co/q5MyO0KuaJ. https://t.co/vKJKl88b0z — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday I signed an executive order updating @PennsylvaniaGov workplace sexual harassment policies to reinforce protections for LGBTQ employees. Harassment based on sexual orientation or gender identity is unacceptable. This is one more step toward equality in Pennsylvania. https://t.co/VJmvm6jP7H — PolitiTweet.org

Great news. Thank you to the Biden Administration for standing up for trans students. I’ll keep doing everything I can in Pennsylvania to protect trans Pennsylvanians from discrimination. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

The same lawmakers who turned their backs on the will of Pennsylvanians during the November elections are now pushing bills to create barriers for voters. I will not support any legislation that rolls back the voting freedoms and rights of our citizens. https://t.co/kAHExprv3m — PolitiTweet.org

Implementing the fair funding formula was a great bipartisan success, but it was only the first step. It's time to make education equitable in Pennsylvania by running ALL basic education funding through the fair funding formula. https://t.co/P4Yw0ruli9 — PolitiTweet.org

If your local organization has an idea for how to reduce COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in your community, you can apply for a grant to help make it happen. Check to see if you're in one of the pilot areas, and then contact @UnitedWayPA for more information. https://t.co/4OM3plBuaI — PolitiTweet.org

Cocktails-to-go were a lifeline to bars and restaurants during the pandemic. Pennsylvanians have embraced this service as an amenity in our commonwealth, and I support making it permanent. — PolitiTweet.org

Despite bipartisan support, Republican leadership has failed to pass basic employment, housing, and public accommodations for LGBTQIA+ communities. All Pennsylvanians deserve to live their lives without fear of discrimination. Now is the time to act. Pass the #PAFairnessAct. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

A significant 2020 Supreme Court decision barred workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity. But PA's patchwork of protections leaves too many LGBTQIA+ people without needed protection from discrimination and harassment. We need the #PAFairnessAct. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

It's unacceptable that PA is the only Northeast state that fails to provide comprehensive protection for LGBTQIA+ communities. I took action in 2016 to protect state workers, but only the legislature can extend sexual orientation and gender identity protections to everyone. — PolitiTweet.org
