| Dear Neighbor, I hope you are well! This week, I’m sharing with you my op-ed addressing federal concerns, signup links for my Scam Jam (April 17) and Senior Fair (May 1), as well as a few more events and noteworthy information.
As always, I hope you find the information below informative and useful. | | Op-Ed: Their Game is Chaos, Our Answer is Action | Many are wondering what state elected officials are doing to address concerns over current federal actions. Don’t believe the lie we’re doing nothing; my colleagues & I show up for work. But true strength is in the power of the People when we stand up together.

Civic education allows people to participate and understand how our democracy operates. Share the image above with any family or friends who may not know who their state representative/senator is or share the link below to look at current state legislation in the works in Pennsylvania.
