Starting this week, my Administration is deploying $775 MILLION through PennDOT to fix hundreds of miles of roadway as fast as possible — in every county across our Commonwealth. And every single dollar will be used in the next 18 months.

A beautiful fall evening spent with our family, friends, and the Jewish community as we gathered for Shabbat in our sukkah at the Governor’s Residence. We hope Sukkot brings joy and togetherness to all Pennsylvanians celebrating across our Commonwealth. Chag Sameach!

BREAKING: Philly Youth Basketball is EXPANDING — so they can continue their life-changing work, on and off the court, that opens up the doors of opportunity for so many kids across the City of Philadelphia.

We will not let the City of Chester’s past challenges shape its future. Too many people are counting on us to deliver for them.

Setting our kids up for success at school starts before the first bell rings — that’s why we’re providing them with a healthy FREE breakfast to ensure they’re ready for their day.

Kids learn in different ways and places... including the playground. That’s why we made recess the law in Pennsylvania for all students in grades K-5. Just the latest way we’re doing right by our kids in schools all across our Commonwealth.

So many caring, skilled Pennsylvanians want to work in child care — but for too long, those careers haven’t paid enough.

Asking for help is a sign of strength. Pennsylvanians struggling with their mental health deserve our compassion, empathy, and most importantly — our support.

Every woman deserves the freedom to choose. Donald Trump and far-right extremists think that the government has the right to make these deeply personal decisions FOR women. We don’t believe that here in Pennsylvania.

So much of the progress we see here in Pennsylvania is thanks to ordinary people who have done extraordinary things — unsung heroes who are going above and beyond in their communities.

I’ve got news for Donald Trump: You can’t just change the rules about our elections to get the results you want.

Today, I stood before CEOs, researchers, and AI experts in Pittsburgh with a simple message: We need to take action NOW to rein in AI technology and regulate it at the federal level.

It didn’t sit right with me that more than 60,000 retired public servants hadn’t seen an increase to their pension payments in over 25 years. Frankly, it was disrespectful to their years of service.

239 years ago today, the work of forming a more perfect union began right here in our Commonwealth, when our nation’s founders gathered in Philadelphia to sign the U.S. Constitution.

Donald Trump consistently threatens the very rights and freedoms that make us who we are as Americans.

For many Pennsylvanians, owning a business is their version of the American Dream. As Governor, I’ve had the opportunity to meet many of the people who have worked hard to make that dream come true.

To our Latino Pennsylvanians who may be feeling scared and unwelcome as the Trump Administration continues to threaten your rights and attack your communities — know that here in Pennsylvania, your rights will be protected and you have a home here in our Commonwealth.

This Hispanic Heritage Month, we celebrate Pennsylvania’s Latino community whose food, language, culture, and traditions make our Commonwealth a richer, more vibrant place.

Yesterday’s commentary by AI industry leaders should be heeded as a bright flashing red light telling the President and Congress they need to act now to regulate and rein in AI development.

On the 25th anniversary of 9/11, we remember the nearly 3,000 souls who we tragically lost that day — and honor the bravery of the men and women who stood up to evil and ran towards danger while others were running away.

We're working with local partners and investing $100 million to chart a new path forward for the City of Chester — supporting a city that was left behind for decades and creating real opportunity.

Civil disagreements and debates are healthy for our democracy. In fact, throughout our history, they’ve served as the catalyst for real, progressive change.

Our Commonwealth was founded 344 years ago on the ideals of freedom of religion, free elections, and free expression. Tonight, I was honored to join Gov Cox and the Knight Foundation for an important conversation on how we protect our fundamental freedom outlined in the First Amendment:

Child care is too damn expensive. And on top of high costs, we don’t have enough child care workers to keep up with the demand from hard-working families.

Crisis counselors have told me how hard it is to get people the help they need without proper mental health funding from the state. The old way of doing things wasn’t good enough. Real lives are at stake.

Stopped by the Pittsburgh Fire Fighters IAFF Local No 1. Labor Day Picnic to thank these heroes for everything they do to keep our communities safe. They run towards danger to protect our neighbors while others run away to safety — and I can promise you this, I’ll always stand with them.

Great to be back in Pittsburgh kicking off Labor Day the same way I have for years… spending time with Pennsylvania’s workers in the original union town.
