Start of a New Legislative Session
|
|
|
|
Last week I was sworn in to the 209th Legislative Session of the General Assembly of Pennsylvania. It has been my great honor to serve western Montgomery County for the past few years, and I look forward to the next two years. Thank you for trusting me to represent our area in Harrisburg.
This session, I am honored to be named the chairperson of the new Communications and Technology Committee. Every two years, the House updates the makeup of its standing committees, which is where legislation begins after introduction. With always changing trends in technology -- such as AI -- it is important to ensure that innovation and consumer protections co-exist in our commonwealth.

REAL ID Implementation Date Approaching
|
|
|
Do you still need a REAL ID? Beginning May 7, 2025, you will need a state-issued REAL ID?-compliant license or identification card, or another acceptable form of ID (such as a U.S. Passport), to fly within the United States.
You can get a REAL ID now or when you renew your driver's license. Learn more about REAL ID at https://www.dmv.pa.gov/REALID/ and feel free to contact my office with any questions.
