For YEARS @RepBenSanchez and I have worked in Harrisburg to hold people account for putting these weapons on our streets. The lost and stolen loophole has allowed folks to get away with it.
Our bill failed this year by one vote — but we aren’t done! Glad to see the city sue. – at Philadelphia, PA

Rightwing extremists across the nation have been using their power to bully LGBTQIA+ youth.
I want all our kids to know that they matter and they belong. And in PA, we have their back.
Today I signed an executive order to protect LGBTQIA+ Pennsylvanians from conversion therapy.

My executive order directs state agencies to:
1) Do everything in their power to discourage conversion therapy
2) Actively promote evidence-based medical treatment for LGBTQIA+ individuals
3) Update policies and procedures to better support LGBTQIA+ Pennsylvanians
Rep Ben Sanchez retweeted
Conversion therapy is a traumatic practice that actively harms the people it supposedly seeks to treat.
I’m calling for a full ban of conversion therapy in Pennsylvania.
For that, we need the General Assembly to take action and pass a bill.
