As we debate the 5 tragic measles related deaths in PA, it’s worth remembering that 60x that number of kids died last year from flu… and most of them were unvaccinated. Cold/ Flu/ Covid season is here. Talk to your health provider about how to protect yourself/ your kids!

Voted early today! 🗳️ It took almost 90 minutes because the line was out the door & down the street: 1) Never seen turnout like this for a midterm. Voters are engaged. 2) Sadly, I saw many people look at the line and leave. A functional democracy makes voting easier. 😞
