As we recognize #nationallawenforcementappreciationday we pay respect to and express gratitude for the thousands of law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line every day to protect us and our communities. We should never forget the devotion, training, and good judgment that these trusted men and women demonstrate. What we say on this day of commemoration is true each day of the year.

Today, the Senate once again elected @senatorkimlward to serve as President Pro Tempore. When she speaks about principles and priorities, her tone and words are reassuring because they are rooted in what matters – doing what is right for the people of Pennsylvania.

It was an honor to begin the year by attending the swearing in ceremony for PA Court of Common Pleas Judge Nina Sordoni.

The addition of a judge is an important step toward meeting the responsibilities of the 44th Judicial District that covers both Wyoming and Sullivan counties. I was proud to witness this new beginning.

As we enter the holiday season, I am grateful for the opportunity to honor the men and women who have served our commonwealth and our nation.

I joined Maj. Gen. John Pippy, the adjutant general, and @paagriculture Secretary Russ Redding on a visit to Gino J. Merli Veterans’ Center in Scranton, as part of the @pa.dmva annual effort to meet with veteran residents and thank the dedicated staff who care for them.

Our state veterans’ homes play a vital role in providing skilled nursing, personal care and memory support in an environment that respects and honors service. I encourage anyone who can to join in helping spread holiday cheer and appreciation to the residents and staff who give so much every day.

@northwellhealth opened its first primary and immediate care center in Pike County, a major step forward for access to quality health care in our region. It means shorter travel times, faster treatment and more convenient options for routine and urgent health needs.

It was a pleasure to speak with students at Northwest Area High School’s Career Day about the importance of public service and community involvement. Their enthusiasm and thoughtful questions were inspiring.

Happy 50th anniversary to Grimm Construction in Wayne County!

It’s businesses like this — rooted in family values, committed to excellence & devoted to service — that help strengthen NEPA. We appreciate the Grimm Family & their team for all they do in our community.

As part of @leadershipnortheast Impact: Leadership in Education series, participants visited the PA Capitol today to connect with elected officials and engage in an analysis of our education system.

The program offers educational professionals across Luzerne County a chance to experience a transformative development curriculum designed to help them make positive change within their schools.

Lt. Col. William J. Dunn, Jr., of Luzerne County opened today's Senate session offering words of faith as our guest chaplain.

We often speak of a commitment to justice and service. Lt. Col. Dunn embodies those traits. His record is a lengthy one of deployment in the Middle East and Europe, assisting in domestic disaster relief efforts, and currently overseeing defense counsel services for personnel in 54 states and territories. He is a good family man who contributes to protecting our state and nation.

The Spirit of Hope Celebration is a wonderful demonstration of community commitment to a worthy cause. It is more vital than ever for us to support the crucial work of health care stalwarts such as @neregionalcancerinstitute

Congratulations to Tribute to Courage honoree @slickbaum and his family. Our area is blessed to be home to so many men and women who have served our nation with honor and distinction. Few have assembled John’s sterling credentials. His demonstrated commitment to fighting cancer is impressive. His example of leadership and contribution inspires us all. #soaringhigher

The rotunda was packed as @aicup_nonprofit mascots charged into the Capitol, including Archie McGrowl with the @misericordiau Cougars.

@repfritz and I also got to see Dan Pahls of Wayne County, who was in town with the PA Orthotic Prosthetic Society and @soeverybodycanmove advocating for insurance coverage and participating in Disability Awareness Day.
