Last week, Pittsburgh Steelers running back star and Hall-of-Fame legend, Franco Harris, stopped by the State Senate!

We welcomed Harris and his family to Harrisburg, as he recalled one of the most famous plays ever completed in all of American football - the Immaculate Reception, which he completed his rookie season, 50 years ago on December 23, 1972!

I was delighted to stop by the Saxonburg Museum this weekend, during the Festival of Arts in Roebling Park. The museum truly displays the heritage of our area and John Roebling's vast engineering legacy.

In honor of National Petroleum Day, tomorrow, August 27, I joined the American Petroleum Institute Pennsylvania (API PA), the Pennsylvania Grade Crude Coalition (PGCC), the Pennsylvania Independent Petroleum Producers (PIPP) and the Pennsylvania Independent Oil & Gas Association (PIOGA) along with several of my legislative colleagues at the Drake Well Museum to celebrate the pivotal role that Pennsylvania, the birthplace of the modern oil and gas industry, has played for over 160 years.

I am proud to represent the birthplace of the petroleum industry in the Pennsylvania State Senate. What occurred here in 1859 helped catapult the United States onto the world stage as an industrial giant. It helped reshape society for the better by transforming manufacturing and transportation processes, and by making life improving products and inventions accessible to the average person.

In 1859, Edwin L. Drake drilled the first U.S. commercial oil well in Titusville, a small town in Crawford County, Pennsylvania. The world-famous Drake Well demonstrated practical oil recovery by applying salt-well drilling techniques, including the use of the derrick, and invented the modern method of driving iron pipe.

From left to right pictured is myself with David Clark, president of the PGCC; Bill Henderson, Vice President, PIPP; Jacob Faber, Energy Citizen advocate; Dan Weaver, president and Executive Director of PIOGA; and Rep. R. Lee James.

Last week, I joined the Senate Veterans Affairs and Emergency Preparedness Committee and Senate Urban Affairs and Housing Committee for a joint hearing to learn about the progress being made to combat veteran homelessness in the Commonwealth, as well as what improvements can still be made.

The joint hearing was held at Veterans Place of Washington Boulevard in Pittsburgh.

Testifiers explained that a strong collaboration between federal, state and community partners is critical to most effectively help our veterans.

Veterans Place of Washington Boulevard is one example of a program currently helping veterans, it provides a safe haven where veterans can continue their recovery from chronic mental illness.

Yesterday, during session, I had the honor to introduce the National Champion Butler High School Golden Tornado’s Boys Track and Field Team, and welcome them to the Senate floor with PA State Rep. Marci Mustello!

Their incredible season was topped off by their stellar performance at nationals. Most notably, their Distance Medley Relay quartet took home first place in their event by a landslide.

Their winning time of 9 minutes and 56.84 seconds at nationals ranked seventh all-time in the United States among high schools and surpassed the previous Pennsylvania state record by 8 seconds. I join everyone in the Butler community in congratulating them on a historic season.

Last week, I had the distinct honor of introducing Colonel Raymond Hyland, Jr. before the Senate Veterans Affairs and Emergency Preparedness Committee upon his consideration for promotion to Brigadier General within the Pennsylvania National Guard.

As a Senator this comes as one of the most humbling experiences to offer support for the promotion of such a deserving and accomplished Pennsylvania National Guard Officer from the 21st Senatorial District.

Colonel Hyland currently serves as the Wing Commander of the 171st Air Refueling Wing of the Pennsylvania Air National Guard based out of Coraopolis. Colonel Hyland is well educated in his areas of expertise and has received many major awards and decorations during his thirty-three years of service to our great Commonwealth and Nation.
