Madeleine Dean said "It is a good time for Pennsylvania. Some would say we are on a roll. The Phillies made it to the World Series; Jalen Hurts is the MVP; and the Eagles are the best team in football. Last November, Pennsylvanians spoke loudly. Josh Shapiro was elected our Governor and Austin Davis our Lieutenant Governor, and we begin this term with newly elected Democratic Speaker of the House Mark Rozzi, our Senator John Fetterman, and nine Democratic Congress Members representing us here in D.C. Just like the entire Democratic Caucus, Pennsylvania Democrats are united and determined to make a difference for everyday people on issues like gun violence, addiction, and providing high-quality education, which makes me eager to, once again, serve alongside returning Members Matt Cartwright, Brendan Boyle, Dwight Evans, Mary Gay Scanlon, Susan Wild, and Chrissy Houlahan, and with dynamic new Members like Summer Lee, an activist lawyer and first Black woman to represent Pennsylvania in Congress, and Chris Deluzio, an Iraq war veteran and voting rights attorney. Pennsylvanians sent a congressional delegation to Washington that looks like Pennsylvania and, with Governor-elect Shapiro, we will govern for all. ___________________
