It's mid-June and the budget deadline is looming.
Instead of working to solve the cost of living crisis, Harrisburg is raising costs on families by expanding our prevailing wage law.
Say NO. Vote no on SB 908.

SB908 is a gift to unions compliments of PA taxpayers. It hurts small municipalities hardest. They’ll have to raise taxes burdening taxpayers further PA is closed for business STILL
Why are GOP members of the Senate Labor & Industry committee voting to make public projects more expensive today?
Say NO. Vote NO. Reject expanding prevailing wage law.
Take action at 📲 https://t.co/HLZV1GNLTB.
We are urging the Pennsylvania Senate to oppose SB 908.
Prevailing wage mandates disproportionately burden smaller and nonunion contractors, limiting opportunities for businesses to compete on price, quality, and innovation.
Now is not the time to raise costs across Pennsylvania.
@AFPPennsylvania apparently, the Republican controlled Senate didn’t care. Just 13 of us opposed this tax hike in disguise. Taxpayers will now pay more for roads, bridges, water systems, and all other public projects. AND this will level a blow to PA custom manufacturers. It’s unbelievable!
But wait, there’s more! PA has a uniform construction code, code enforcement officers & mandated inspections yet SB1260 licenses electricians & apprentices! Non-union mandate = 4 journeymen to 1 apprentice & can’t hire enough apprentices, unions = 1 to 1! PA workforce loses again
As Pennsylvanians struggle to put food on tables, gas in cars, & electricity in homes, PA senate is going to hammer custom manufacturers & increase costs for local gov, resulting in higher local taxes. Killing business & jobs! #SB908
Just one more example why the Pay-to-play FDA has next to no credibility with the public. They’re beyond compromised! FDA: glyphosate good - raw milk bad 🤦♀️
One of the largest raw dairy farms in America was told to lie on their raw cheese label by the FDA
They were told to pasteurize the cheese then put “raw” on the label
The FDA has been telling other brands to do this, and it’s true. He shows proof with examples
He’s brought to tears saying he works for his customers not the FDA
“We refuse to lie to our consumers — Clearly, the FDA is not connected to consumers, and I don't serve the FDA. I serve people. Excuse me for being emotional, but it's that deep”
Why is this happening
People for “Raw” dairy products argue it offers superior nutrition, enzymes, and gut health benefits when properly produced and testing
The FDA and state health departments) warn that unpasteurized products carry significantly higher risks of foodborne illness from bacteria like E. coli, Salmonella, Listeria, and Campylobacter
He says they test their products, its negative
The bigger issue here is the FDA is telling companies to lie and then letting them package the product with the lie. This is so corrupt
Rather than distancing themselves from SPLC, which was indicted for funding and instigating racism and antisemitism, the Shapiro admin is doubling down by having their “experts” lecture Pennsylvanians on “anti-Muslim hate.”
“I don’t want to be anything like California!” says one frustrated truck driver.
But too bad, because he lives in Pennsylvania, which decided to AUTOMATICALLY copy California rules.
Now trucks in Pennsylvania will cost $50,000+ more!
@GovernorShapiro except it’s not true. We have a Gov who openly chooses to protect scammers of state programs at the expense of federal funding for our most vulnerable.
if PA Students weren’t eligible for school tax credits Shapiro would be suing for the 50th time AND now @JoshShapiroPA is blocking students from receiving credits that would give them a chance to succeed Shameful!
🚨NEW @A1Policy Fact Sheet illustrates why the Keystone State must OPT-IN to the Freedom Tax Credit delivering a dollar-for-dollar federal tax credit of up to $1,700 unlocking more options for the tens of thousands of students whose opportunity and future has been waitlisted.
US Treasury Secretary @SecScottBessent builds the case:
“Power belongs in the hands of parents—not Washington bureaucrats whose ill-targeted spending has driven down test scores and promoted woke ideology,”

The Senate often considers complex, divisive issues.
Protecting the votes of American citizens is not one of them.
It is a simple task, and the American people are united:
Pass the SAVE America Act.
Let us not wane on pushing the most important domestic issue of our day:
🚨The SAVE America Act🚨
Thanks the to @freedomcaucus for their steadfast efforts to get this across the finish line.
