According to @spotlightpa.org it appears the PA legislature is on track to pass fewer bills than in any legislative session since at least 1973-74. PA needs new legislative rules & leaders in both chambers ready to serve all PA rather than their own top donors. www.spotlightpa.org/news/2026/10...

Even a court-ordered deadline isn't enough to force PA legislative leaders to do their job: enact needed solutions. We shared a story on the skill game impasse in 2025. Here's the next installment. It's time to fix Harrisburg so bipartisan bills can get a vote. www.fixharrisburg.com/stories/all-...

Polls consistently show that voters object to closed primaries & think unchecked money in politics & partisan #redistricting are serious problems, undermining trust in elections. That's true across party lines. www.wypr.org/wypr-news/20...

PA House and Senate are back in session today after an 11 week recess. It's possible something important could pass in the few session days left. But for most bills, most advocates, most legislators- the odds are very much against it. fairdistrictspa.com/updates/just...

Both PA House and Senate are back in session tomorrow - the first Senate voting day since they adjourned on July 12, 11 weeks ago. What bills were YOU hoping they'd get around to voting on? If bills aren't considered in the next few days, odds are it won't happen.

1 in 10 Americans now live in a different district than they did during the 2024 election & about 1/5 now live in a district where more than 1/4 of voters are new to the district compared with the last election "There is no off-ramp other than reform." www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Missouri's redistricting battle has been the longest, most complex & confusing-all to yield 1 more GOP district. Ballots are being printed while political opportunists spar for advantage. It's time for maps drawn by & for the people, not the politicians. apnews.com/article/redi...

FDPA Chair @CKuniholm spoke briefly at the State of the Union on Latino Health hosted in Harrisburg on 9/16 by Latino Connection. One theme that emerged throughout the day: zip code should not determine our health, our education, or our representation.

Voting rights groups and Democratic officials are looking to defend against what they see as possible election interference from the Trump administration ahead of the upcoming midterm elections, now that they’ve won a major battle over mail ballots. From @statesnewsroom.com

Ahead of the midterms, voters should familiarize themselves with the facts about voting and elections. Here are five false claims circulating. bit.ly/4yDljei
