HARRISBURG, May 3 – State Rep. Mary Jo Daley announced this week that Colonial School District , which includes Plymouth-Whitemarsh High School, Central Montco Technical High School, Colonial Middle School and five elementary schools, will benefit from a funding grant to improve school safety. Operating under the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency , the School Safety and Security Committee awarded Colonial School District a total of $73,775, which is included in the 2018-19 budget. The funds will go toward trauma-informed approaches to education, including trauma support services and behavioral health care. That means hiring or contracting certified guidance counselors, licensed professional counselors, licensed social workers, school psychologists and other professional health personnel; developing collaborative efforts between the schools and behavioral health professionals to identify students in need of trauma support; providing trauma-informed approaches to education in the curriculum; and providing services for children and their families, as appropriate, who have experienced trauma or are at greater risk of experiencing trauma. “It’s incredibly unfortunate these steps are necessary in today’s climate, but there’s no denying the value of these steps,” Daley said. “The safety and security of our children in the schools is of utmost importance, and I’m thankful to the SSSC for their investment in Read more

PLYMOUTH MEETING, April 24 – State Rep. Mary Jo Daley, D-Montgomery, today hosted a House Democratic Policy Committee hearing at the UFCW Local 1776 Meeting Hall titled, “Why Unions?” focusing on the role unions play in protecting workers’ rights. Daley requested the hearing to bring together her legislative colleagues from across the state, including Policy Committee Chairman Mike Sturla, D-Lancaster, and stakeholders to discuss the need unions play for workers. "Basic worker rights such as the 40-hour work week, workplace safety regulations, child labor laws and much more. It’s important that we recognize as the workforces evolve and times change, that we must keep up with the times and provide protections workers drastically need,” stated Daley. “Last year, CEO wages went up nearly 18 percent while worker wages stayed stagnant. Unions help to ensure that hardworking men and women are paid family-sustaining wages. When we allow CEOs and big companies to pay low wages, we’re giving them a free pass while their workers must rely on state assistance just to get by,” explained Sturla. “I’m happy to stand with Rep. Daley to support unions and workers who help boost Pennsylvania’s economy.” The committee heard testimony from: Gerald Oleksiak, Secretary of Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry; and a panel of unions including: Wendell Young IV, President, United Food & Read more
Union membership faded after the industrial booms of centuries past, right? Fewer dangerous factories and mines, so no real need for laborers to organize, right? No. In fact, unionization matters now more than ever. Corporations possess inordinate power and influence in Pennsylvania and national politics. Last year’s Janus v. AFSCME Supreme Court case overturning precedent and the will of our commonwealth’s legislature reinforced this fact by taking even more power from the women and men whose work drives our economy. Therefore, the time is now to stand up to corporate interests and the lawmakers and lobbyists whose priorities seem to be tax cuts for the rich. Capitalism and organized labor go hand in hand as workers continue to fight for fair wages, benefits and working conditions. The first union in the United States – the Federal Society of Journeymen Cordwainers (shoemakers) – started in Philadelphia in 1794. Unions continued growing in Pennsylvania, with our state serving as the epicenter of the coal and steelworkers’ unions. Today, Pennsylvanians continue the fight for workers’ rights, though in decreasing numbers as we see rules and regulations and continuous tweaking that benefit corporations. In the late 1930s, unionization sparked sweeping federal legislation that provided for collective bargaining and set a federal minimum wage. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, only 10.7 percent of workers today Read more
