Dear Friends,

Last week, I met with representatives from Sen. Steve Santarsiero’s office, Falls Township, Bucks County Planning Commission, PennDOT, and Bucks County officials to discuss ongoing concerns about the intersection of New Falls Road and Tyburn Road.

We understand this intersection has been a longstanding concern for residents and motorists, and our office is aware of the issues and is committed to improving safety and traffic flow in the area. With both roads currently scheduled for resurfacing in 2027, we are exploring opportunities to include short-term improvements as part of that project while also continuing to pursue the design and funding of a larger long-term solution.

We will continue to keep residents updated as the situation develops.

Recently, Sen. Steve Santarsiero, Rep. Tina Davis and I were proud to present the Levittown-Fairless Hills Rescue Squad with a $355,000 grant to purchase a new ambulance.

These dedicated first responders save lives every day, and I was glad to help secure funding that will support their work and improve emergency care in our community. I’ve always supported our first responders, and I’ll continue doing everything I can to support them moving forward.

I recently co-hosted a free Paper Shred Event and Food Donation Drive at Bucks County Technical High School with Sen. Santarsiero and Rep. Davis.

With an excellent turnout and an incredible amount of food donated by members of the community, the event was a tremendous success.

Thank you to our dedicated staff and volunteers for making this event possible, and to everyone who participated in the shred event or helped support local families in need. We greatly appreciated your support.
