Bucks County lawmakers say public mobilization was instrumental in PECO’s decision to rescind its proposed rate hike

(Apr 16, 2026)

“Today, elected officials and everyday Pennsylvanians can stand together knowing their voices were not only heard, but truly listened to. Our delegation is thrilled that PECO backed down from its proposal, and we are incredibly proud of the Bucks County residents who signed the petition, stood with their neighbors, and made their voices count. We fight for working families, lower costs and the people of Bucks County,” they said. “We also extend our thanks to Governor Josh Shapiro for his support — without his leadership, this outcome would have been far more difficult to achieve.” Read more

Senator Steve Santarsiero and Representative Tina Davis Announce Over $1.5 Million in Grants for the Bristol Area

(Apr 15, 2026)

State Senator Steve Santarsiero (D-10) and State Representative Tina Davis (D-141) announced today that four recipients in the Bristol area have been awarded $1,500,000 in grants from the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency through their Building Opportunities for Out-of-School Time and Violence Intervention and Prevention (VIP) programs. “These kind of proactive investments in our students are some of the best investments we can make as a state,” Santarsiero said. “Every dollar we invest in our students now leads to better life outcomes, lower crime, and greater economic activity for our area later. These programs also include strong partnerships with local organizations that will connect our youth with public safety professionals, environmental and nature groups, and other local organizations who serve our community. I’m proud to support these grants for the Bristol area.” “Investing in after-school, summer, and prevention programs across Bristol Borough, Bristol Township, Bucks County Technical High School, and No Longer Bound strengthens our entire community by giving young people the academic support, enrichment opportunities, career exploration, and safe spaces they need to thrive,” Davis said. “These grants are about more than programs—they’re about building pathways to success, reducing risk, and ensuring every student has the opportunity to reach their full Read more

 

Davis, Isaacson encourage Pennsylvanians to get tested for diabetic retinopathy

(Apr 14, 2026)

HARRISBURG, April 14 – State Reps. Tina Davis and Mary Isaacson today announced the Pennsylvania House of Representatives’ adoption of a measure aimed at raising awareness of diabetic retinopathy and promoting free diabetic eye screenings taking place across the Commonwealth on April 25. Diabetic retinopathy, a complication of diabetes that affects the eyes, remains the leading cause of blindness among working-age adults. Over time, more than half of individuals living with diabetes will develop the condition. However, early detection through regular screenings can significantly reduce the risk of vision loss. House Resolution 428 highlights the importance of these preventative screenings and recognizes the dedicated ophthalmologists who are volunteering their time and expertise to provide free services to Pennsylvanians. “Diabetic retinopathy is a serious but often preventable condition when caught early,” Davis said, noting that increasing awareness of free screenings gives people the opportunity to take control of their health and protect their vision. “These free screenings are a critical resource, especially for individuals who may not otherwise have access to regular eye care, and I commend the ophthalmologists and medical professionals who are stepping up to serve their communities and make a meaningful difference in people’s lives.” House Read more

Bucks County lawmakers speak out against PECO’s proposed gas and electric price hikes

(Mar 31, 2026)

Pennsylvanians across the state are already dealing with higher PECO costs due in part to the construction of AI data centers that are sapping energy from the electric grid but are currently not compensating consumers, the lawmakers said. Brennan, Davis, Munroe, Prokopiak, and Warren all voted for H.B. 1834, which would begin the process of forcing data centers to pay for their own electricity. The bill passed the Pennsylvania House of Representatives last week. Read more

 

Shusterman, Davis honor Mae Krier, Rosie the Riveter Day

(Mar 24, 2026)

HARRISBURG, March 24 – State Reps. Melissa Shusterman and Tina Davis honored Bristol resident Mae Krier, a trailblazing member of the “Rosie the Riveter” generation, in celebration of her 100th birthday and her lifelong advocacy on behalf of women who supported the nation during World War II. The recognition took place in conjunction with H.R. 385, which designated March 21, 2026, as “Rosie the Riveter Day” in Pennsylvania. The resolution commemorated the millions of American women who entered the workforce during World War II to support the war effort, filling critical roles in manufacturing, industry, and military support services. These women, many of whom lived and worked across Pennsylvania, played a vital role in securing victory and reshaping the nation’s workforce. “It is my honor to recognize Rosie the Riveter Day here in Pennsylvania,” Shusterman said. “Mae Krier's tireless advocacy for the Rosies to receive the accolades they deserve has always been inspiring to me. At a time when some people are attempting to erase our shared history, it is more important than ever to elevate all the trailblazers and women who have come before us.” Davis emphasized the importance of recognizing both Krier’s legacy and the broader impact of the Rosie the Riveter generation. “Mae Krier represents the very best of this Read more

It ensures that every timely cast vote is counted and protects the integrity of our elections.” Read more

Lawmakers spotlight diaper need crisis

(Sep 30, 2025)

HARRISBURG, Sept. 29 – State Reps. Carol Hill-Evans, Tina Davis, Kyle Mullins and Eddie Day Pashinski held a news conference at the state Capitol this week to unveil a House resolution designating Sept. 15–21, 2025, as Diaper Need Awareness Week in Pennsylvania. According to the National Diaper Bank Network, one in two families struggles to provide enough diapers to keep their children clean, dry and healthy. Nearly one in four parents report missing work or school because they cannot afford the diapers required to place their child in childcare. For older adults, the need is just as urgent. Adult incontinence products can cost up to $1,000 annually and are not covered by Medicare or many private insurance plans. The Western Pennsylvania Diaper Bank reports that adult diapers cost nearly three times more than infant diapers, placing enormous strain on seniors with low or fixed incomes. “In my home district in the City of York, year after year I see volunteers, nonprofits, churches, and even businesses answer the call to donate and distribute diapers,” Hill-Evans said. “Their compassion inspires me and reminds me that Pennsylvanians are ready to help; they just need their government to stand with them. I’ve once again introduced legislation, House Bill 1417, to create a state grant program to help organizations that already distribute diapers and incontinence products, meaning we Read more
