Thank You for Coming to Christmastime in Loganville!
Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate Christmastime in Loganville! It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces and to meet new friends as we kicked off the holiday season together. This year, Erin P. of North Codorus and Faith S. of Dallastown, won this year’s Capitol Christmas ornament. Congratulations! Wishing everyone a joyful and bright season ahead! New Podcast: Protecting Property Owners from Eminent Domain Abuse
This week, we released a new podcast episode of Kristin’s Corner featuring my colleague Sen. Cris Dush for an in-depth discussion on eminent domain: why it matters, how it’s been misused, and what we as lawmakers are doing to protect property owners across Pennsylvania. You can listen to our conversation on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube. Our conversation comes at the perfect time: I just introduced new legislation to strengthen protections for families and farmers facing eminent domain proceedings. If you care about private property rights and government accountability, you won’t want to miss this episode. Happy Thanksgiving!
On Oct. 3, 1863, months after the Battle of Gettysburg and with victory in mind, as well as its cost, President Abraham Lincoln issued a proclamation encouraging Americans “in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea, and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next as a Day of Thanksgiving and prayer.” Thanksgiving has been celebrated officially in the United States ever since. I hope you and your loved ones have a happy Thanksgiving filled with love, gratitude and hope. Statewide Firearms Deer Season Begins Nov. 29
Pennsylvania’s statewide firearms deer season runs from Nov. 29 through Dec. 13 and includes two Sundays: Nov. 30 and Dec. 7. More than half a million hunters are expected to take part in this traditional outdoor recreation and essential wildlife management. If you’re taking to the field, please consider participating in the Hunters Sharing the Harvest program, which lets hunters donate deer – at no cost – at any one of more than 100 licensed butcher shops across 56 counties. Venison is then processed for distribution statewide through regional food banks in partnership with Feeding Pennsylvania and Hunger-Free Pennsylvania. Last year’s donations led to a record 283,789 pounds of venison, which equated to about 1.1 million servings of lean, nutritious meat for food-insecure individuals and families Delta-Peach Bottom Elementary Visits the Capitol
A big thank you to the students from Delta-Peach Bottom Elementary for visiting the state Capitol Monday! Your curiosity, thoughtful questions, and enthusiasm brought so much energy to the halls of our historic building. As we head into the holiday season, the Capitol will soon be transformed into a festive wonderland with decorations, lights, and seasonal cheer around every corner. December is truly one of the most magical times to visit. If you’re planning a trip, be sure to stop by the Capitol Gift Shop while you are there and pick up a Capitol Christmas ornament to take a little piece of the season home with you! Plan your visit here. Shop Local on Small Business Saturday
Small Business Saturday will be held Saturday, Nov. 29, spotlighting the role that small businesses play in our communities. The holiday season is a wonderful time to shop small.
