Families like Fatima’s continue to be affected by Trump’s economic policies–unable to buy toys, groceries, and everyday expenses. Working Pennsylvanians are pushed aside while billionaires reap the benefits.

The Trump Administration will spend billions on anything BUT giving Pennsylvanians healthcare.

Trump and Congress will spend our tax money on war, triple ICE’s budget, cut our healthcare – doing anything BUT taxing billionaires.

No Kings As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

When our military is fighting a war Americans don't want, secret police are kidnapping and killing our neighbors, and the regime is working overtime to suppress the vote in the midterm elections, silence isn't an option. No Kings Day on March 28 has to be big, loud, and inescapable.

Please join us.

Kelli believes Pennsylvanians deserve quality healthcare, healthy food, and affordable housing. Our taxes could be funding those essentials instead of ICE’s brutality against our neighbors.

Trump and his supporters in Congress have gutted healthcare so they can fund ICE’s reign of terror.

We deserve to have our communities funded, not terrorized.

Trump’s illegal tariffs cost working Pennsylvanians $4 billion.

We deserve a refund.

While Pennsylvanians struggle to make ends meet, Trump is again spending our tax dollars to fuel an illegal war.

Pennsylvanians are facing an affordability crisis — enough is enough.

A federal judge ordered the restoration of a slavery exhibit that was removed in Philadelphia. National parks are meant to tell the full American story. That includes slavery. Editing history to fit a narrative is not patriotism. It is the fear of the truth.

ICE has a record of abuse and overreach, funding it without accountability is not a strength. Our taxes should fund care, not an out of control agency that terrorizes our neighbors.

TLDR: Trump continues to claim that the economy is doing great as Pennsylvanians know firsthand how hard it is to afford anything at all.

Pennsylvania leaders called out Trump’s disconnect from reality during his #SOTU.

Working Pennsylvanians want billionaires and corporations held accountable, not lies.
