Pennsylvania's embarrassingly low minimum wage is less than half the living wage of our metro areas. And local governments can't do anything about it. It's time to raise the minimum wage and allow communities to set wages that reflect reality. https://t.co/IV8miOPOmG — PolitiTweet.org

As you can see, Pennsylvania is falling behind. Legalized marijuana is what the majority of Pennsylvanians want, plus it keeps revenue here. Tell the legislature to send a bill to my desk so we can #LegalizeIt. https://t.co/JD4htePm2i — PolitiTweet.org

Abortion bans hurt the people they claim to protect: Children and expectant mothers. We should be focused on lowering the maternal mortality rate, fighting child poverty, expanding health care access, and preventing domestic violence. These bans make all those issues worse. https://t.co/xGyYuEeLE0 — PolitiTweet.org

Guns killed 4,300 U.S. children in 2020. They're the leading cause of death among kids and teens. If the GOP is as pro-life as they claim, they should send legislation to my desk that would prevent these senseless firearm deaths of our children. — PolitiTweet.org

Can’t stop thinking about the racist hate crime that took place at a Buffalo grocery store on Saturday. We have so much work to do around dismantling racism and keeping guns from dangerous individuals. My prayers are with the victims, their families, and the Black community. — PolitiTweet.org
