We're hearing this budget will include a 41% increase (now $400 mil. dollars) in taxpayer money going to private schools that can refuse ANY STUDENT FOR ANY REASON with NO performance or fiscal accountability. We must end these giveaways for the elite, and support public schools!

It's unacceptable that over 80 Philadelphia schools needed to close early this week because of problems with temperature control. PA has not allocated any money for school facilities since 2016. Our children and teachers deserve better!

Even in many air-conditioned Philly classrooms, it’s sweltering: How did it get this way?

I’m a state Rep and a parent. Carrying a baby in your body, birthing a baby, nurturing a baby and raising a child is a big decision - it’s a personal, emotional decision. Politicians should not be making decisions for women about their own bodies.

Fiedler: Families and Doctors Decide, Not Politicians

Pa. state Rep. Elizabeth Fiedler believes a pregnant person and their doctor should be the ones making healthcare decisions - not politicians. Extremist effo...

Democratic Leader Frank Dermody introduced a resolution (HR896) back in May to formally amend the Rules of the House to require the wearing of masks, however House GOP leaders have refused to allow a vote on the measure. @RepFrankDermody

☀️Solar For Schools☀️continues to garner attention across the Commonwealth! As I said when I intro'd this legislation: “On-site solar can reduce energy costs and save Pennsylvania districts and state universities hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.”

Pa. lawmakers propose grant program to fund solar projects at K-12 schools, colleges • Pennsylvania...

Lawmakers have introduced legislation that would create a grant to help fund the installation and equipment for a solar energy system.

I just spoke on the House floor against the state budget. It doesn’t do nearly enough to invest in Philly or Pa. In fact, it’s notable what this budget does NOT do: -Dramatically improve school UNDERfunding -Raise the minimum wage -End toxic schools -Help small biz owners

Chaos temporarily reigned in the #PASenate chamber during start of debate over eliminating general assistance. In a moment of confusion, @senatorscarnati took over the podium from @JohnFetterman , who in a brief interview said of the Senate GOP: "They invoked the nuclear option."

Today at 9am in the Capitol, with @RepMadsen and labor, education and environmental leaders, I’ll be announcing exciting legislation that will fund solar projects at public schools across the state! #PASolar4Schools

>Short version: 🌈We need reliable revenue streams for such fundamental parts of our government as ensuring clean water and air. 🔥Doubling down on fossil fuels will hold us back from the GOOD JOBS in retrofitting and renewable energy that our constituents need. (3/3)

The decision to overturn Roe is about more than just abortion. It’s part of a larger failure by the GOP — and our society — to respect the bodies, the lives, and the work of women. Read more of my piece in today’s Inquirer:

After Roe, we know what the Pa. GOP will do, says Rep. Fiedler | Opinion

There is a larger failure of our society that the Pa. GOP refuses to address: the urgent need to support and value the lives, the bodies, and the work that’s primarily done by women.

Taxes are too high for working and poor people in PA and unfairly low for the super-rich. We need a better system. Repealing the uniformity clause would allow us to adopt a progressive tax rate, so the ultra-rich pay their fair share to fund our communities. #TaxTheRich 💸

This afternoon I expect a House floor vote on HB950! This bill, which I introduced with my colleague @RepPisciottano would enshrine into the PA Constitution a right to organize and collectively bargain. 1/4

Republicans have the votes today, but to enact this change, Republicans will need to pass it through the legislature again next year, and voters would need to approve the change as a ballot question. 2/3 #AbortionBan

This is designed to sidestep this governor or the next. To get this passed, they’d 1) need to pass it again in the legislature next year, and 2) get voters to approve it as a ballot question. 2/3 #AbortionBan

I'm proud to be one of the 20 Philadelphia State Representatives demanding a just and fair contract for @PMA_Union workers. I will be at the PMA tomorrow to support those workers and to let @philamuseum VIPs understand that if there's NO CONTRACT there can be NO MATISSE.

I’m incredibly saddened by the mass shooting at Robb Elementary school in Texas yesterday. I’m also incredibly frustrated that my Republican colleagues in the State House refuse to even consider restricting access to military-grade weapons. 1/3

The decision to end the national moratorium on evictions just as school stars and less than two weeks before Pandemic Unemployment benefits expire for 300,000 Pennsylvanians disregarded the reality many renters have been facing.
