Today’s tragic events have left our entire region shaken. My heart and prayers are with the families enduring unimaginable worry and grief. I am deeply grateful for the swift and selfless actions of first responders and rescue crews who continue working under stressful conditions.
For generations, U.S. Steel and the Clairton Coke Works plant have stood as symbols of Western Pennsylvania’s work ethic and determination. Our region’s story has been forged in the heat of steel mills by people who do not back down from challenges but instead stand shoulder-to-shoulder in hard times.
In the face of heartbreak, we will not waver — because in Western Pennsylvania, we are forged in steel and we do not break.
Great minds think alike — Leader Costa and I are both in beige today!
Must be Bipartisan Beige Day in the Senate chamber. 😄
When the work (and the walking) doesn’t stop, comfortable kicks just make sense.
Inspired by @repmcclinton’s signature style!

The Senate just passed Senate Bill 88 — a bipartisan, lifesaving bill Sen. Frank Farry and I sponsored to eliminate costs for diagnostic breast imaging. 🩷
🎗️ We’re closing the loop on early detection.

My statement on the current discussions surrounding the Nippon/US Steel deal.
I stand with the workers, communities and businesses who have supported this from the beginning.
Let’s get this done.
💗 Act 1 was just the beginning.
With SB 88, we’re finishing what we started — eliminating out-of-pocket costs for diagnostic breast cancer imaging so women can take action immediately after an abnormal screening.
Early detection saves lives!
On June 6, 1944, the Allies launched one of history’s most important military operations.
As D-Day veterans grow fewer, it’s more vital than ever to honor their legacy.
We must never forget the 2,500+ Americans who gave everything for our freedom.
From bridges to battleships, Western PA steel built America. 🌉⚓
We’re proud of our legacy and ready to lead the future.
Let’s keep investing in the people and places that keep America strong. 🇺🇸

@potus Trump understood what Western PA families know: steel built this country and it should stay American-made. 🇺🇸
Thank you @realdonaldtrump for fighting for our workers and keeping steel production right here in PA! 🔨🏭
THANK YOU @potus for putting America — and Pennsylvania — first! 🇺🇸
This steel deal is a win for workers, their families and the 𝘼𝙢𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙢𝙮.

My full statement on President Trump’s approval of Nippon/U.S. Steel investment.
Got to see the @Eagles’ Lombardi trophies on the Senate floor today — very impressive!
But don’t worry, I joined my fellow yinzer senators to remind everyone the @steelers still hold the record with SIX Super Bowl wins! 🖤💛

I was honored to welcome students from Hempfield Area High School’s Project 18 to the PA Senate! 👏🏻
For 50+ years, this one-of-a-kind civics program has empowered young leaders in Westmoreland County — including my own chief of staff!
GO SPARTANS! 💙🤍

Right here in PA! 🍔🐄
May is National Beef Month and Westmoreland’s own Logan Family Farms was in Harrisburg yesterday cooking up burgers to celebrate. 😋 They even let me flip some!
Support your local farmers!
Yesterday we recognized Mammography May in the Senate — because 1 in 8 women will face breast cancer and early detection saves lives.
With bipartisan support and Act 1 in place, there’s no excuse to delay.
Schedule your mammogram.
For you.
For your family. 🩷
🎉 Westmoreland County showed up STRONG in the Senate today!
I was proud to recognize 90+ student-athletes from 5 championship teams — including volleyball, bowling & swimming — for their PIAA State titles.
🏐🎳🏊🏻
Congrats to these incredible champions & their coaches! 🏆
✨Pennsylvania’s future is bright with the talented leaders from the Leadership Pittsburgh XLI cohort.
I enjoyed talking with them today!
Great to speak with leaders from the ACCD and Philadelphia Chamber to discuss where our priorities align. We must keep cutting the CNIT, support the USS/Nippon merger, unleash PA’s energy potential and modernize infrastructure. The best thing government can do is get out of your way. #pabudget
