@YCEAPA launched the BLOOM Empowerment Center w/ over $1.7M to deploy to YoCo small businesses via loans, grants, classes, & fellowships! ALSO @SullyElizabeth4 will be BLOOM’s inaugural Executive Director! We could not think of a more fitting leader for this exciting endeavor!
My legislation would enact affirmative consent standards in all colleges and universities.
What does that look like? We must move from “no means no” to “yes means yes.”
Without an affirmative yes, it’s sexual assault.
Today I'm announcing #ItsOnUsPA legislation to further reduce sexual violence in Pennsylvania colleges and universities.
If passed, my legislation will strengthen the definition of consent and require preventive education starting in middle school, among other protections.
A job fair will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 28, at PeoplesBank Park in York! Why go? 50 employers all in one place, ready to hire on the spot, rather than having to visit separate companies individually. Learn more about tomorrow's event here!

30 years ago at another Super Bowl in Tampa, Whitney Houston gave perhaps the most transcendent rendition of the National Anthem ever sang. To honor her and that moment and Black History Month, tomorrow's episode of @NPRItsBeenAMin is all about that performance, and nothing else.
Reading through this article was humbling — and receiving so many texts and calls from friends and colleagues... all I can say is thank you. I hope to make you all proud during these confirmation hearings, and serve to the best of my ability.

1 in 5 working parents are unsure if they will return to their pre-COVID work situations.
Turnover costs mean employers are already paying for the cost of not supporting childcare. #childcare#earlychildhood#costofchildcare#equityinrecovery
+ Hire for skills not degrees
+ Employee stipends/reimbursements to continue their training & Ed
+ Undo assumptions around “fit” and “soft skills” to remove bias
+ Provide supports for working parents
+ Invest in frontline staff not just execs
