ICYMI: #AmandaGorman’s poem ‘The Hill We Climb’ in full.
If you have the means to do so, order out as much as possible in the coming weeks. If you love beer... go to a local brew pub - @baldbirdsbrews - and get a case, buy a growler, etc. Let’s help our restaurants, bars, pubs & taprooms. We’re gonna need them when this is over!!
#IRS deposited the first Economic Impact Payments into taxpayers’ bank accounts today. We know many people are anxious to get their payments; we’ll continue issuing them as fast as we can. For #COVIDreliefIRS updates see: irs.gov/coronavirus
For those looking for information on stimulus payments, #IRS will share it as soon as it’s available. In the meantime, there’s no need to sign up for anything – Just make sure you’ve filed a 2018 or 2019 tax return - #WithYouToday help us spread the word irs.gov/coronavirus
Suicide rates are trending up for our youth as a whole. And among LGBTQ+ people in PA, a staggering 38% reported seriously considering attempting suicide. If we don’t talk about bullying + mental health, we risk losing more and more kids to depression & suicide.
The PIAA Field Hockey Championship times for tomorrow's championships at Whitehall HS have been adjusted: 1A - Newport v Wyoming Seminary now 3 pm 2A - Palmyra v Donegal now 5 pm 3A - Hershey v Lower Dauphin now 7 pm Best of luck to our five finalists

Fiesta Bowl CHAMPS. #WeAre Penn State defeats Washington, 35-28, and remains undefeated at the @Fiesta_Bowl.
180,162 PA children are enrolled in CHIP. These children are able to go to the doctor if they break their leg, have an asthma attack, or are fighting cancer. Our children need Congress to do their job and re-authorize this vital program.
Devastating news. As of January 1st Alabama’s very successful CHIP program won’t enroll new kids due to Congressional inaction. Alabama has been a star of the South with 97% of kids insures. alabamapublichealth.gov/allkids/
Good news. Senate Finance Ctte marking up bipartisan KIDS Act Weds am at 9:30 to extend CHIP for 5 years.
Cassidy just said his bill incorporates CHIP protections. Nope. And G-C has derailed bipartisan efforts to extend CHIP before 9/30 deadline
Snowmiser begs for mercy as Heatmiser continues his beat down. Note the burned up grass he is also responsible for.
The #GrahamCassidyBill would decrease federal health care funding for states by $160 billion from 2020-2026 kaiserf.am/2hm0ToX
Sen. Cassidy on CNN says CHIP reauthorized already - not true. youtube.com/watch?v=30T7_S…. CHIP reauthorization has been derailed by his bill.
Wow. Cassidy-Graham = HUGE money transfer from Blue states to Red. axios.com/vitals-2486505… But losers also include OH, NC, FL, AR, AZ, KY...
New Census data finds # of uninsured kids declined again in 2016. Lowest rate ever with 95.5% of kids insured! In 2015 it was 95.2%.
