It’s a tremendous honor to be able represent our community in Harrisburg for another two years. My legislative priorities for the new term that begins in January include policies to help working families, schools, first responders, job training and economic development in the Mon Valley. And as always, my team in my three district offices (scroll down for hours and locations) are here to help you with any state service or program, so never hesitate to reach out.
Serving as your state representative is the privilege of a lifetime, and thanks to your support, I’m looking forward to working at home and in Harrisburg to keep moving the Mon Valley forward. Thank you for the continued privilege of serving as your voice in Harrisburg.

PA's largest veterans benefits update in decades
|
|
|
On this Veterans Day, I’m happy to share that the state Department of Military and Veterans Affairs has announced a historic expansion of state veterans benefits, marking the most significant update to these programs in more than 35 years. These changes may allow more veterans and their families to qualify for valuable benefits and support, such as:
- Disabled Veterans' Real Estate Tax Exemption
- Veterans' Temporary Assistance Program
- Educational Gratuity Program
- Veterans Pension Programs
Veterans are encouraged to contact their local county director of veterans affairs or a certified veterans service officer to determine how these updates may affect them. For additional details, visit the Dept. of Military and Veterans Affairs website. My district office team is also happy to help you find assistance, so don’t hesitate to contact us.
