(4/): At the same time in Harrisburg, @PennPolicy joined the @PASchoolsWork coalition alongside 200+ advocates calling for adequate and equitable school funding across #Pennsylvania.

Every child deserves a fully funded public education regardless of ZIP code.

[Felicity Explains It All @FelicitySpeaks]

(3/): We also discussed #Pennsylvania’s growing revenue cliff and why sustainable, fair revenue matters for schools, transit, housing, infrastructure, and economic stability statewide.

Pennsylvania’s budget choices shape whether communities can truly thrive.

[Felicity Explains It All @FelicitySpeaks]

(2/): #Affordability is bigger than prices alone & a community development issue.

When housing, child care, transportation, health care, & utility costs rise while public systems are underfunded, the pressure gets pushed onto families, schools, local governments, & providers.

Families who work hard and play by the rules need affordable, accessible healthcare they can count on. Speak out against the #HealthcareHeist!

(1/): May 6 was a powerful reminder that from #Pittsburgh to #Harrisburg, Pennsylvanians are fighting for communities where everyone can stay, work, build, & thrive.

@PennPolicy joined @PghCRG’s Summit to talk about affordability as a community development issue. 🧵

To stave off the closures, Public Citizen says, “Congress should take urgent action to restore all Medicaid funding cuts [and] extend the enhanced premium tax credits for coverage through the Affordable Care Act marketplaces.”
