Remembering August 26, 2021
On this day, we remember and honor the lives lost in Afghanistan on August 26, 2021.
We remember the 13 U.S. service members who made the ultimate sacrifice, along with the Afghan civilians who were killed that day.
We remember their families, their friends, their brothers and sisters in arms, and everyone whose lives were forever changed.
May we never forget their names, their sacrifice, or the lives they left behind.
Gone, but never forgotten. 🇺🇸🇦🇫
🚨 LEGISLATIVE UPDATE: SAVE WOMEN’S SPORTS — PASS SB 9
Pennsylvania’s Save Women’s Sports Act (SB 9) passed the State Senate with bipartisan support, 32–18. Yet the bill remains stalled in the House Health Committee, where House leadership has prevented it from receiving a full floor vote.
The principle is simple: women and girls deserve a fair and level playing field.
SB 9 protects fairness, safety, opportunity, and the integrity of women’s sports by ensuring that female athletic teams remain female - from K–12 through college.
Bring SB 9 to the floor for a vote. Protect women’s sports in Pennsylvania!

August 24-25, 1814 - During the War of 1812, Washington, D.C., was invaded by British forces that burned the Capitol, the White House and most other public buildings along with a number of private homes.
37 years ago today, 2 million people joined hands to form a 600km human chain across Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.
The Baltic Way stands as one of history’s most powerful peaceful protests against Soviet occupation.
