One of the greatest blessings of serving the people of Pennsylvania`s 33rd District is getting to work alongside an outstanding team.
Here we took a few minutes to visit one of the finest fire companies in our district, and it reminded me that public service is never a one-person effort. While my name may be on the door, it is my staff who helps make it all happen every single day. Their dedication, and genuine care for our constituents are the reason our offices are able to serve so many people so well.
THROWBACK THURSDAY: The night before the ground war began, I paused beside a destroyed Iraqi tank. My unit, the 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment, had crossed into Iraq a full day before the official start of the ground offensive, helping lead the coalition`s advance into enemy territory. #ThrowbackThursday
There’s something special about the Franklin County Fair. 🇺🇸❤️
For generations, families have gathered here to celebrate our agricultural heritage, support our hardworking farmers and 4-H and FFA youth, and make memories that last a lifetime. From the barns to the midway, the sights, sounds, and traditions remind us of the values that have always made our community strong.
In a world that changes so quickly, the Franklin County Fair remains a place where neighbors come together, traditions live on, and the American spirit shines bright.
Here`s to another year of making memories, honoring our roots, and celebrating all that makes Franklin County such a special place.
God bless Franklin County, and God bless America! 🇺🇸🌽🎡
It was a pleasure to welcome Miss Pennsylvania to the 33rd Senatorial District and to recognize two outstanding women whose leadership and service are making a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
I was honored to present the Pennsylvania Freedom Award to Rebecca Van der Groef, President and CEO of Hoffman Homes in Adams County, and to Miss Pennsylvania in recognition of their dedication to serving others, strengthening our communities, and inspiring the next generation.
As President and CEO of Hoffman Homes, Rebecca Van der Groef has devoted herself to providing hope, healing, and opportunities for children and families in need. Likewise, Miss Pennsylvania continues to use her platform to promote leadership, scholarship, service, and positive change throughout our Commonwealth.
Congratulations to both recipients on this well-deserved recognition. Thank you for your compassion, your leadership, and your unwavering commitment to making Pennsylvania a better place. It was a privilege to celebrate your accomplishments and welcome you to the 33rd Senatorial District.
