These investments will be crucial for the future of Downtown Pittsburgh! Among the items I'm excited for are the creation of roughly 1,000 residential units, added street-level commercial space and restaurants, and expanded emergency co-responders.
I was very disappointed to see the items regarding our Air Quality Program sent back to committee. The poor air quality in Allegheny County (19th worst in the country for yearly particulate pollution) is one of the reasons I first became invested in county government.
No, Israel is absolutely not.
With Sinwar describing Palestinian deaths as “necessary sacrifices,” Hamas designed a plan to maximize civilian deaths, embedding its infrastructure behind schools and hospitals.
The humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza is owned by Hamas.
It is truly mind boggling that we have reached the point where it’s a ho hum fact that essentially every person supporting one presidential candidate including his vice president previously argued that he’s an existential danger to the country.
First Lady Jill Biden joins @chefjoseandres and @NC_Governor to thank volunteers working at the @WCKitchen site helping support the local community in Asheville, NC after hurricane Helene.
(7/X) The point is that if I, who am stupid about this, grasped Trump by 2020, political reporters and editors, who should be smarter than me, should have grasped it by then if not earlier. And how could anyone fail to grasp it after Jan 6?
Picture this: It’s January 20, 2025, and you, your friends, and your family are about to watch President-elect Kamala Harris at her inauguration take the oath of office and deliver her inaugural address.
You realize your few hours a week volunteering, making a plan to vote, and encouraging friends to do the same all worked out—and you’re seeing it pay off as the first woman becomes president.
A better future is possible if we work hard for it: https://t.co/FAff5BQauk
There is no logic that isn't damning as to why the Washington Post and LA Times feel they can endorse in every local, state and federal election other than a presidential race.

This investment will fund a 10-year plan that will build 1,000 new housing units in Pittsburgh (including over 300 affordable housing units), revitalize our public spaces like Market Square and Point State Park, and ensure the Golden Triangle is a space for opportunity for all.
Today, I made a historic announcement about the future of Downtown Pittsburgh: all levels of government, the private sector, nonprofits, organized labor, and our sports teams are all behind a $600 million, 10-year plan to revitalize this neighborhood, fueled by a $62.6 million investment by our Commonwealth.
In less than two years, @PaHouseDems delivered for working families. The people-first agenda isn't just popular with Dems - it also appealed to most independents and a big chunk of Republicans.
It turns out a lot of people like it when #DemocratsDeliver:
