In this Update:
State of the CommonwealthI joined my legislative colleagues for the 2025 State of the Commonwealth Address hosted by the Cambria Regional Chamber. Visit with Portage StudentsThank you to Mr. Dennis Link and the students from the Portage Area School District’s Tobacco Resistance Unit Group who visited my office. I appreciate the passion these students have on ending tobacco use among their peers. 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. Shop Local on Small Business Saturday
