Hate Has No Home in PA
Combat hate with a robust update to PA's hate crimes laws
expanding the protected groups to cover LGBTQ+ and disabled people, strengthening civil and criminal penalties, and increasing training for police and educators.
Pass Sensible Gun Laws in PA
The vast majority of Pennsylvanians support common sense gun laws such as universal background checks and emergency removal protection orders. These laws have passed the House with bipartisan support. Urge your Senator to support them!
Driver's Licenses for All
Support HB769, granting driver's licenses for all PA residents who pass the exam, regardless of citizenship.
End the Death Penalty in PA
Urge PA representatives to support HB999 and end the death penalty in the Commonwealth.
Filter First
There is no safe level of lead consumption, but unfortunately, many school districts in Pennsylvania are providing drinking water that contains lead. SB986 would require a statewide Filter First policy to make sure our students have safe drinking water.
Protect Against LGBTQ+ Discrimination in PA
In Pennsylvania, more than half a million LGBTQ+ residents are vulnerable to discrimination every day because of a lack of express and enduring protections at the state level. It's time to make PA a safe place to live, love and work for everyone.
