John, at around 2 a.m. on Jan. 7, after 15 rounds of voting to determine our next Speaker of the House, I was finally sworn in as a member of Congress representing Pennsylvania’s 6th Congressional District. Thank you, thank you. I wouldn’t be here without you.

It’s the honor of my life to return to Congress, and I’m ready to keep working for Pennsylvanians and all Americans.

Although it was a sometimes rocky process, we accomplished so much together in the last two years – big investments in our transportation and supply chain infrastructure, climate change mitigation, support for Ukraine, lower prescription drug prices and more – we have SO much to be proud of.

Where do we go from here? With Republicans now in control of the agenda in the U.S. House of Representatives, I’m honestly not sure yet. But you can count on me to aggressively protect the gains we’ve made while seeking creative ways to solve the challenges facing our community and our country. Our to-do list is long.

I hope you’ll continue to stand by my side. I remain focused on serving my constituents and advocating for policies that help working people, but I can't do it alone – not without you.

We must work together, John. So if you're with me, please donate what you can so we can face the challenges of this new beginning head-on.

There's work to be done.
