Dear Neighbor,

This week, I am back in Harrisburg as the PA House of Representatives starts its 2025-26 session. While I look forward to a new, productive year with my colleagues, I am also inspired to look back with pride on what my team accomplished last year.

 

2024 saw more than $18 million dollars of grant funding returned to our legislative district.

 

These funds went to help our school districts make building improvements and increase student safety, upgrade our parks, give our seniors places to gather and support our local police and firefighters.

 

Four of the bills I introduced last year were signed into law by Gov. Josh Shapiro.

 

This legislation helped make life easier for renters, helped lessen two types of burdens for small businesses, and positively impacted our environment.

 

Finally, back in our District Office, my team handled almost 6,000 total cases.

 

Those cases included everything from helping with unemployment claims to expediting professional licenses to filing PTRR applications.

 

There are so many ways my team can help. Reach out at 267-768-3671 if you need assistance with any state services.

 

 

In Memoriam

 

State Representative Matt Gergely

 

October 5, 1979 - January 19, 2025

Last week we laid to rest my friend and colleague, state Rep. Matt Gergely.

 

Rep. Gergely was dedicated, kind and committed to bettering the lives of Pennsylvanians.

 

Donald 'Doc' Ryan

 

May 28, 1940 - January 18, 2025

In addition, The North Penn community is mourning the loss of long-time Athletic Director Donald “Doc” Ryan, who touched the lives of generations of North Penn students.

 

Both men left an indelible mark on their communities and will be deeply missed. May their legacies of service and leadership live on.

 

 

2025 Fishing Season

For Mentored Youth Trout Fishing Day, youth under the age of 16 can join a mentor (adult) angler who has a current fishing license and trout permit. Youth anglers must obtain a free PFBC-issued permit, or a voluntary youth fishing license.  Both are available online, through the Montgomery County Treasurer’s office, or at a retail license issuing agent.
