I voted yes on SB365, which is the companion bill to Rep. Jennifer O'Mara bill, which allows first responders to receive workers comp for PTSI without having to prove that the injury was sustained under ‘abnormal’ working conditions.

🚨 PTSI Bill Passed!🚨 Thanks to the support of the Pennsylvania General Assembly, first responders suffering from post-traumatic stress injury can now access the benefits they deserve. Special thanks to Senator Camera Bartolotta and Rep. Jennifer O'Mara for their dedication to protecting those who

Very proud SB365 is heading to the Gov's desk! 🖊️ This allows first responders to access workers’ comp for PTSI. Not possible without Rep. Jennifer O'Mara's tireless efforts. Thank you! 👇🏻 senatorbartolotta.com/2024/10/23/bar…
