I was proud to honor 250 years of American independence at Congress Hall with the ceremonial session of the #PAHouse.  We must celebrate how far we’ve come and continue working to ensure freedom, equality and opportunity are realities for every Pennsylvanian.

I’m introducing legislation to stop surge pricing on Ubers and Lyfts during large-scale events. Surge pricing turns transportation from a predictable necessity to an unpredictable financial burden. We must keep transportation accessible and fair. Read more: www.pahouse.com/Cephas/InThe...

This facilities plan is not what our community needs and is not what we stand for. The Board of Education hasn't made their final vote yet, but I would remind them of the simple message of student Winston Hayes at last week's meeting: “Remember, you can vote no." www.inquirer.com/education/sc...

I'm standing up for Overbrook Elementary at every opportunity. Thanks to WHYY for their coverage of our community's voice at the Board of Education Town Hall. These decisions are too rushed for something that will impact generations of Philadelphians. whyy.org/articles/phi...

When we invest in mass transit - we ALL win! I support the SEPTA Key Advantage & the Zero Fare program to help our city workers and most vulnerable neighbors get where they need to go, because if Philly isn't moving - Pennsylvania's economy simply doesn't work.

I hope you’re able to join me on Monday as we honor Dr. King’s legacy at my Voices of the Dream: MLK Day Gospel Celebration & Community Resource Fair. This is a great opportunity to celebrate and honor the values, principles, and beliefs of Dr. King, which are in need more than ever today.

It was my privilege to officially rename the 6300 block of Lansdowne Ave. as "Jayanna Powell Way" with Councilmember Curtis Jones, Jr., Sen. Anthony Hardy Williams and Jayanna's family. Jayanna will never be forgotten, and her name will shine on over our community.

It was an emotional event on Saturday morning as we renamed the 6300 block of Lansdowne Ave. as "Jayanna Powell Way" in honor of 8-year old Jayanna whom we tragically lost in 2016. Let us continue to focus on her legacy to be a force for good in her community. www.repcephas.com/InTheNews/Ne...

Welcome back to Mornings with Morgan. The Working Pennsylvanians Tax Credit is a huge WIN in this year's #PABudget helping nearly 1 million families with up to $800 at tax time. This is People First Policy with YOU in mind. What could you do with an extra $800 this year?

Today's action by Gov. Josh Shapiro is a huge relief for our most vulnerable Philadelphians who rely on SNAP to keep food on the table. This is what compassionate leadership looks like. www.pa.gov/governor/new...

Rep. Morgan Cephas @repcephas.com · 27/10/2025
The combination of losing LIHEAP and SNAP at this time of year is a worst-case scenario. People should not have to choose between food on the table and keeping their home habitable. www.repcephas.com/InTheNews/Ne...

Transit is personal. It's personal to me, it's personal to my colleagues, it's personal to Pennsylvanians. It's about mobility; it's about opportunity. The fight is not over for SEPTA—we must find a stable, recurring funding mechanism to #SaveMassTransit for ALL Pennsylvanians.

Thankful today that the #PaHouse Judiciary Committee approved several bills that would increase public safety and reduce the threat of gun violence in our communities across PA, including my bill to regulate 3D printed guns. pahouse.com/InTheNews/Ne...

Rep. Morgan Cephas @repcephas.com · 22/09/2025
Commonsense regulations for 3D printed firearms is key to 21st Century public safety. These guns are untraceable and undetectable, and can too easily fall into the hands of bad actors. I'm glad the #PaHouse Judiciary Committee approved my bill today.

I hope to see you at my Fall Town Hall Meeting beginning at 6 p.m. on Wednesday. I'll have legislative updates, community info from local organizations, plus the PA Dept. of Human Services will discuss changes that might affect your healthcare and more. You'll have an opportunity for Q&A, as well!

Ensuring that homeowners receive financial counseling before agreeing to a reverse mortgage is a responsible way to help folks understand the potential risks & available alternatives. This is a commonsense safeguard for seniors who are often unaware of the long-term risks with a reverse mortgage.
