As we come to the end of National Immigrant Heritage Month, it’s important to remember that immigration is the key to our city’s future. Growing our population is the solution to Pittsburgh's financial challenges, and we need to make it a city-wide priority.

Meet Nazrin, our summer fellow from Azerbaijan who’s here as part of an @AC_Global exchange program. Today we had the chance to learn more about her home country, the work she does in their Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, & her favorite things about Pittsburgh & the U.S.

“From my perspective, this is an excellent and prudent place to start,” she said. “Maximizing the value of every dollar for every kid and family that this district serves needs to be a priority for Pittsburgh Public Schools.” wesanews.org/education/2026…

Today we released an audit examining City code enforcement by @PLIpgh, @PGHDPW, and @PghDOMI. City Code exists to keep people safe, keep people healthy, and keep things clean, and we need to enforce these laws consistently and reliably. Full report here: pittsburghpa.gov/files/assets/c…

Frances lived a remarkable life and was considered one of the best athletes in West Virginia before she joined the WASP. She was killed in a plane crash in 1944, becoming one of 38 WASP pilots to be killed in service of our country.

I joined Medic 14 of @PghEMS to learn more about the work our paramedics do and see the unique challenges they face. It’s a difficult, stressful job, and we need to make sure they have the resources and support they need to do this life-saving work.

Thanks to everyone at @AACWP for having me last week at the annual PowerBreakfast. Great conversations about the work we’re doing to improve City finances, grow our population and economy, and support Black-owned businesses and work training programs.

Thanks to @PghPolice Sgt. LaBella for bringing me on a ride-along last week. Riding along with our police officers is the best way to learn about the difficult work they do, and to see how the City can better support them.
