Senator Dush

With five of the seven counties I serve being declared a “maternity care desert,” preserving and expanding rural healthcare access is of paramount importance to me.

However, EVERY LIFE, whether it’s in rural Pennsylvania, or the cities, matters. In this Mission Report Podcast preview clip, Janice Walters, CEO of the national non-profit Rural Health Redesign Center and I discuss why fixing everything that’s broken with rural healthcare and addressing this “man-made crisis” is not a Democrat or Republican issue, but quite literally a matter of “life or death which requires both short-term and long-term solutions.

Once again, I want to thank my good friend and colleague Senator Kristin Phillips-Hill (R-York) for inviting me on her latest Kristin’s Corner podcast to discuss our legislation that would protect preserved family farms and other private businesses from eminent domain abuse.

My legislation, which passed the Pennsylvania Senate unanimously last June, would require seizing agencies to take “goodwill” into account when they pay for land taken from a family farm or private business through eminent domain (Senate Bill 225).

Senator Phillips-Hill’s legislation would specifically require that when preserved farmland is condemned for non-agricultural use, compensation must reflect both the fair market value of the land and the taxpayer dollars invested to permanently preserve it (Senate Bill 1098).

Ultimately, the purpose of our legislation is to make it much harder and more expensive for the government to confiscate private land:
