“Statewide numbers for 2024 show the average annual cost of center-based infant care in Pennsylvania at $14,910, or 11.5 percent of the median married household income and 40 percent of the median household income for single-parent families,” the reports. “It is more expensive to send two children to daycare than one child to an in-state college.”

This is why House Republicans introduced a 14-bill package addressing child care challenges. Read more about these efforts in this Broad + Liberty article: https://broadandliberty.com/2026/06/10/pennsylvania-families-are-paying-the-price-for-childcare-red-tape/

The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture (PDA) has issued a quarantine order to prevent the introduction of New World Screwworm (NWS) into the state. Although no cases have been detected in Pennsylvania, the parasite has recently reappeared in parts of the southern United States.

New World Screwworm larvae feed on the living tissue of warm-blooded animals and can severely impact livestock and wildlife. While the parasite cannot survive Pennsylvania’s winter temperatures, it could still enter the state through infected animals during warmer months.

The quarantine places movement and import restrictions on animals such as cattle, sheep, goats, horses, swine, dogs, and cats. Any animal suspected of infestation, or originating from affected areas in New Mexico or Texas, must be examined by an accredited veterinarian before entering Pennsylvania. Animals from quarantined premises are barred from entering until cleared by state animal health officials.

Suspected cases should be reported immediately to a veterinarian and the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture’s Bureau of Animal Health and Diagnostic Services at 717-772-2852.

For additional information, residents may contact Penn State Extension in York County at 717-840-7408 or consult resources provided by USDA and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

A big to the Hanover Public School District Athletic Department, coaches, high school athletes, as well as the Hanover Athletic Booster Club for sponsoring a Girls in Sports night for our K-6 girls interested in athletics. Grace loved the opportunity to experience all of the sports offered by the district. Thank you to all who made this evening possible for our young girl athletes! 🧡🖤

I recently joined other members of the York County Delegation to the House of Representatives for a meeting with Leona Rega, executive director of Human Life Services.

The meeting provided an opportunity for pro-life organizations like Human Life Services to share their priorities and update the delegation on challenges and successes within their centers. I appreciated the opportunity to be part of this important discussion.

“It is so complicated to run child care programs,” said Shaun Elliott, Greater Philadelphia YMCA President and CEO. “The regulations get in the way of providing quality services, and there is dual reporting to both the Departments of Education and Human Services.”

He explained that kids need more, parents have high expectations, staff want and deserve higher salaries, and the regulations are not conducive to meeting diverse needs.

This is why House Republicans introduced a 14-bill package addressing child care challenges. Read more about these efforts in this Broad + Liberty article: https://broadandliberty.com/2026/06/10/pennsylvania-families-are-paying-the-price-for-childcare-red-tape/

On Friday, I was honored to attend the dedication of the Florence M. deHaven Health & Wellness Center at the VNA of Hanover & Spring Grove, named in recognition of Florence deHaven Stick, the organization’s very first nurse.

It was wonderful to join community members, hear from several speakers, and celebrate this important milestone with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. My family has personally relied on the VNA’s services in the past, and we are incredibly grateful for the compassionate care and support they provide to so many families throughout our community.

Congratulations to the VNA on this well-deserved tribute and for continuing Florence’s legacy of service and care!

“When my local YMCA and YWCA came to me upon becoming chair, I asked them what their challenges were, and they were the ones who really started us on this journey,” Klunk said. “Today, I’m so very proud that we will be rolling out a 14-bill package that really speaks to everything that we’ve heard and continue to hear.”

to the past and present leadership and child care teams at both the Hanover Area YMCA and the YWCA Hanover for their continued dialogue on the child care challenges facing providers and families across our community. A simple conversation about open van driver positions spurred six policy hearings, one policy roundtable with women legislators from across the country, and a 14-bill package addressing challenges we heard every step of the way. I am proud to live in a community where we can come together to identify problems and put forward solutions to the affordability and accessibility challenges facing our entire Commonwealth.
