I'm so grateful for our first responders and the people who keep our fire companies running! It was an honor to recognize some of them with Senate citations at the Lincoln Fire Company Banquet this weekend.

I love seeing students get hands-on experience in the trades. I recently visited Lancaster County Career and Technology Centerโ€™s Mount Joy campus and was impressed by the number and quality of programs they were offering.

Happy Lunar New Year! I had a wonderful time welcoming the year of the Fire Horse at the Lancaster Asian American & Pacific Islanders' Lunar New Year Celebration in Lancaster. We're so lucky to have neighbors who are willing to share their different cultures and traditions with one another. ๐Ÿ‰ ๐Ÿฎ ๐Ÿฅณ

This weekend, I attended the NAACP Lancaster's rescheduled Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Commemoration Service and Celebration at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church. It was a powerful reminder of the responsibility we have as a community to speak truth and pursue justice for our neighbors.

Senator Malone Introduces Bill to Untangle Property Titles for Working Families HARRISBURG, PA โ€“ February 27, 2026 โˆ’ Senator James Andrew Malone (D-36, Lancaster) today announced he has introduced SB 1203 to help families secure legal ownership of homes passed down [โ€ฆ]

If youโ€™re living in your deceased parentsโ€™ home and paying the bills, red tape shouldnโ€™t stand in your way. This is a common-sense way to simplify the legal process for small estates and help families secure the homes their loved ones worked hard for.

I love when my team can help put ๐Ÿ’ฐ back in your pockets. Yesterday, Nick and Allyssa from my district office helped 16 seniors file applications for the Property Tax/Rent Rebate Programโ€”many of them being first-time applicants. (1/2)

As someone who grew up farming, I love to see the next generation take an interest in agriculture through Future Farmers of America. During the Farm Show, I got to chat with Nate Huber about his leadership in expanding agriculture education through the Manheim FFA.

Protecting Lancaster's farmers is a top priority for me, and I'm thankful that Governor Shapiro & his admin have our back.

Yesterday, we held an emergency roundtable discussion in Lancaster with Secretary Redding, farmers, and ag leaders as we intensify our response to the avian influenza outbreak.

I recently stopped by Chilangos Restaurant to surprise them with a Senate citation celebrating their 10-year anniversary.

For a decade, this small business has brought authentic Mexican cuisine and vibrant energy to downtown Lititz. ๐ŸŒฎ๐Ÿน๐ŸŒต
