When UArts shuttered its doors, it felt like a void being created along the Ave. of the Arts. Fortunately, the Village of Industry & Art helped fill that void. This $500,000 RACP award will allow them to continue the preservation of the iconic Hamilton Hall and make renovations to their interior spaces. Congratulations!

Online gambling has exploded in recent years due to increasingly aggressive marketing practices and a lack of commonsense guardrails. That's why I'm teaming up with Rep. Tarik Khan, Rep. Joe McAndrew, and republican colleagues on a bi-partisan bill package to address problem gambling. With significant harm to mental health, financial security, and family stability, gambling is becoming a real public health hazard for PA.

And when these standards fall, the quality-of-life around them falls, too. Support Build Fair Philly and support responsible development.
