I joined the Gary Sutton Show to talk about some great things happening in our area like the opening of Beating the Odds Recovery & Veterans Services Center in Lemoyne, how strengthening quality of life & workforce retention in York County has become a priority & more. Listen👇

Government shouldn’t stand in the way of homeownership. My permitting reform bill, SB 1236, passed the PA Senate and cuts unnecessary delays by ensuring DEP honors federally qualified permit waivers. See link 👇

Building stronger communities starts with smart planning. As communities grow, we must ensure infrastructure keeps pace. My SB 1287 passed the Senate with unanimous bipartisan support, ensuring municipalities get key water service info before approving new development.See link 👇

It’s always exciting to watch students explore new career paths & discover opportunities in the skilled trades. Thanks to @ABCKeystone & IEC Pennsylvania for hosting an Electrical Career Day where students got hands-on experience and a look at careers in the field.

The Senate Local Govt Cmte, which I chair, passed SB 822, sponsored by @SenLangerholc, to strengthen PA’s firearm & ammunition preemption law & ensure consistent rules statewide. A patchwork of local laws creates confusion. SB 822 restores clarity & uniformity.

May the 4th be with you! I'll never stop fighting to cut the red tape in Harrisburg. The Force is strong with those who stand for less bureaucracy and more freedom. Join the Resistance!

Apprenticeships create career opportunities & Apprenticeship Week is a great time to highlight their impact.
That's why I intro SB 439 to fix unfair union/nonunion rules that hurt small businesses & limit opportunities.

It’s time to modernize these rules & grow our workforce.

[Senator Dawn Keefer @SenatorKeefer]

I agree, it shouldn't be a struggle to understand what your medical costs are going to be. That's why I introduced SB 752 and SB 1289 to increase transparency in medical billing.

It's been 7 months since we had our baby and we're still receiving unexplained hospital bills in the mail.

Hardly ever an adequate description of services. Just a QR code to pay online.

It feels intentionally confusing and difficult to get answers. We want price transparency.

[Senator Dawn Keefer @SenatorKeefer]

Our girls — our future daughters, granddaughters & nieces — they deserve better.

They deserve fairness. That's why I voted in favor of the Fairness in Women’s Sports (SB 1293) that protects the opportunities women have fought so hard to earn.

I will stand up for our girls!

(1/3) Auditor General DeFoor's audit confirmed noncitizens 𝐂𝐀𝐍 vote in our elections. PennDOT can't confirm who had access to motor-voter data or the validity of the voter data transferred to the Dept. of State.

[Senator Dawn Keefer @SenatorKeefer]

(3/3) Just because Governor Shapiro says our elections are secure doesn't make it true.

Productive day in the Senate Local Govt Cmte as chair.

We advanced SB 1287, my bill requiring proof of adequate water service before final land development approval.

We also moved HB 1442, supported by Reps. Lisa Borowski & Ann Flood, to strengthen SUDEP reporting & awareness.

Patients shouldn’t be left in the dark about their health care which is why I joined @WeThePatient to stand up for Pennsylvanians facing confusing coverage and hidden costs.

Patients deserve clear answers. Learn more in the comments.
