Happy May Day! Today we honor the workers and union members who built our communities. The ones who fought for the 8-hour workday, weekends, and safe workplaces. Their sacrifices made Allegheny County the strong, working-class region it is today.

The Venetoulis Institute for Local Journalism (@thebaltimorebanner.com) has begun its ownership of the @post-gazette.com by cutting at least 40% of staff, and 80% of former strikers. It is sad, vindictive, and does not bode well for what we’ve fought and hoped for, including the success of the PG.

It's an incredibly grim reality when seeing a genocidal message like this from the President of the United States isn't even a surprise. But what is even more bleak is how few elected Republicans, at any level of government, are willing to speak up and condemn it.

Thank you to the hundreds of people who came out to #NoKings in Mt. Lebanon today! As I promised on the day I was elected and reaffirmed today, I will always work for the interests of the people who put me in office, not the billionaire class.

Outside of chatting while walking my dogs, one of the best ways I've gotten to know my neighbors has been informing them about upcoming elections as their local committeeman. Today I filed my petitions to get to serve in that role for another 4 years.

I've heard loud and clear from my constituents: they're tired of seeing ICE/CBP agents terrorizing people all over our country and they don't want a dollar of our County taxes going to support the bloated, militant agencies. Proud to serve as a co-sponsor of this bill. www.wesa.fm/politics-gov...

Allegheny County Council to consider bill barring ICE cooperation

The proposed legislation would build on existing policy to prohibit county employees from sharing county resources or data with ICE, unless they have a court order signed by a judge.

Term limits have the potential to lead to a more representative County government, reduce complacency in our elected officials, and curb corruption. I look forward to introducing this piece of legislation tonight. www.wesa.fm/politics-gov...

Allegheny County voters could weigh in on term limits for elected positions

County Council and row office holders would be subject to a three-term limit if voters approve a proposal being introduced at County Council Tuesday.

Correcting prior post: @dangrzybek.bsky.social has his County Commissioner hat on and gives us an update, then changes to Democrat hat and talks about the open seat at large… then adds surrogate hat and addresses the committee for Hilary Wheatley and Matt Rudzki.

Over a 5-year period, billionaire GOP megadonor Jeff Yass reported a total of $9B in capital gains, but EXCLUDED $8.5B of those gains from the Net Investment Income Tax -- a tax aimed specifically at Wall St whales like him -- allowing him to avoid >$300M in taxes. New @propublica.org

How Billionaires Sidestepped a Tax Aimed at the Rich

Wall Street financiers were a clear target of the tax, but some, on questionable legal grounds, have claimed their outsized profits were exempt, sometimes avoiding hundreds of millions in taxes.
