In fact I'm going to go spend a few minutes working on cleaning my car which isn't technically on my To-Do list!

I have A LOT TO DO in the next few days. Let's see if I can do it!

While @PennsylvaniaDEP plans to plug this well, we discussed how there are still thousands across Pennsylvania yet to be identified.
That’s why we must pass my Bipartisan Abandoned Wells Remediation and Research Act.

I started off the day with @PennsylvaniaDEP visiting Ivan + Pamela’s beautiful Murrysville home. However, as far too many of us know all to well, they also have an abandoned oil well in their property, which continues to emit toxins in the community.

PublicSource’s annual review of Pittsburgh payroll data shows that Mayor Ed Gainey’s administration has improved diversity in hiring, though not in the better-paid public safety bureaus. buff.ly/3IUo2sk

@colin_dunlap She also is passionate about the voting process and helps individuals while making sure the process works overall. And there is more, as people here can tell you.

And that’s the entire point.
Ms. Hallam spends a disproportionate amount of time and effort on the very small percentage of the population in this county who are incarcerated and the much larger law-abiding population feel as if she doesn’t at all care about them.

@colin_dunlap You have not a single clue what the fuck you’re talking about. Bethany has devoted so much of her time and energy towards improving conditions at the jail and helping out those released You don’t do shit, so shut up about those who ARE doing something

Also who is this money going to?
The goal of transition housing is to pay amount and find housing. A portion if not all of that amount goes back to you for said housing.
A studio in Pittsburgh can be 500-700. This is counter productive to the goal or is um tripping today🤷🏽♂️

@Tanishaevonne They should make visits as a group, and all go in different directions so jail admin can't control all of them..

Evashavik and Bigley are arguing that individual board members should not be able to do individual jail visits.
They are arguing that the board should make visits as a group.
This is insane.

This is actually obscene. Public comments have proven time and time again to push through JOB to action, hold the jail accountable and help specific individuals get better healthcare.
4pm thursday the 4th. Show up and tell the JOB we won’t stand for this.

The new Jail Oversight Board bylaws seek to deeply limit public comment by: Prohibiting people waiting from commenting after 30 minutes of total public comment Limiting what the public may talk about during comment Disallowing the public from reading other’s comments

Beyond limiting the board's investigatory powers, this would take away a crucial resource incarcerated people have to remedy their concerns

Incarcerated people deserve protection. We will continue to fight for them using the power of organizing, litigation, and simply by showing up for each other.

It is unconsciable that the Judge would weaponize information given to her by the jail against her fellow board members and use it to craft bylaws that prioritize the wants of jail administration. MAN E and @bethanyhallam's commitment should be mirrored, not limited.

Proud to be endorsed by the @CBCPAC in my re-election to be PA's first and only Black Congresswoman.
As white supremacy continues to rear its ugly head from Donald Trump to Super PACs funded by his donors, I'm committed to building the multiracial democracy that we all deserve.
