The ability of children to safely play fall sports

The ability of children to safely play fall sports should be a parent/student decision. All parents should have the right to choose if their children should play under the safety provisions outlined by the PIAA.

I attended the #letthemplaypa rally in Harrisburg to encourage the PIAA to stay the course and allow the decision on whether to have fall sports seasons to rest with the school districts and the parents of the athletes. Time and time again, I have heard from our constituents about the important and essential role school activities and sports play in children’s health and well-being.

We have seen throughout the summer and in other states that the possibility exists for the safe return of sports in order to help our children achieve a much-needed sense of normalcy in such difficult times. I continue to urge the PIAA to remain committed to their work toward a safe return to play.

Under a newly enacted law, Governor Wolf and futur

Under a newly enacted law, Governor Wolf and future governors are prohibited from directing a state agency to ignore citizen requests for government records during an emergency declaration. The measure received unanimous General Assembly approval but was opposed by the governor, who allowed it to become law without his signature. https://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/billInfo/billInfo.cfm?sYear=2019&sInd=0&body=H&type=B&bn=2463

Thank you to Bellefonte’s own Actuated Medical f

Thank you to Bellefonte’s own Actuated Medical for hosting me this morning. After a tour of their facilities, I was able to talk with Maureen Mulvihill, President/CEO, about their quick work in meeting needs to provide personal protective equipment during COVID-19. Actuated Medical had been developing medical and preclinical devices that improve patient outcomes and furthers research initiatives. When it became apparent that additional equipment would be needed, Maureen and her team developed a unique face shield than can be used on multiple occasions for a wide range of people in many settings including first responders, schools, and manufacturing. In order to meet this demand, Actuated Medical brought in additional employees who were otherwise temporarily laid-off due to COVID-19 closures. It is amazing to see our local businesses meeting needs to provide such items on the domestic market.

Normally in the spring, I would be holding in-pers

Normally in the spring, I would be holding in-person town hall meetings in every corner of the district. These town halls allow me to meet and talk with many of you about the issues that matter to you. Unfortunately, this spring has been anything but normal. I won’t let COVID-19 keep us from connecting. So I’ve been hosting a series of telephone town hall meetings.

I will host another telephone town hall to talk with you at 2 p.m. Wednesday June 17, 2020. This time instead of limiting the call of COVID-19 issues, I hope to hear from you about a variety of about issues that concern you. Because the vast majority of the calls coming into my office still are people struggling with the unemployment system, I will be joined by an unemployment compensation expert.

Residents will receive a phone call on their landlines. Residents who want to receive a call on their cell phone should go to www.senatorcorman.com/tele-town-hall. A live audio stream of the event also will be available at that link.
I look forward to talking with you on the call.

It is primary Election Day in PA. Don’t forget to vote!

The Governor issuing new real estate guidelines – just a few hours after vetoing a bipartisan bill that would have done the same – is an incredible act of arrogance and hubris.

The public health emergency created by #COVID19 ha

The public health emergency created by #COVID19 has impacted everyone in different ways. As you can imagine, my office is receiving a high volume of calls and emails as we all navigate the new and ever-changing situation. I’ve also seen specific questions being asked on my Facebook posts. Many of those questions relate to your specific to situation (i.e. Unemployment Compensation, etc.). I do not want to miss these important questions, nor do I want to address things in the comments section of Facebook that would violate your privacy. If you have a question or need help with a state government issue, please go to my website and submit a web-contact form so that my staff and I can address your issue directly. You can access that here: https://www.senatorcorman.com/contact/
