“This was a long battle to put the safety of Pennsylvanians first, but it is a battle worth winning.”

 HARRISBURG – The Pennsylvania State Legislature approved legislation to prohibit the use of handheld cellular and other devices while driving, an initiative long championed by Sen. Rosemary Brown (R-40).

“After more than a decade of relentless work to enact this legislation, the passage of Senate Bill 37 marks a monumental victory for Pennsylvania,” said Brown. “As this bill heads to the governor’s desk, I am filled with gratitude for those who helped us get this far, and I know this measure will protect drivers, prevent crashes and save lives. This bill is more than legislation – it is a reminder of the power of perseverance and the impact we can have when we prioritize public safety.”

MONROE CO., Pa. — The U.S. Department of Agriculture says a wild bald eagle has tested positive for avian influenza (bird flu) in Monroe County.

According to the USDA, a bald eagle sample collected on April 13 was determined to have the virus on May 2. The test results were submitted by the Pennsylvania Game Commission.

The positive test sample comes after a case of avian influenza was previously detected in a Northampton County bald eagle on March 11, the USDA said.

More than a dozen birds across Pennsylvania have tested positive for avian influenza so far this year, according to the USDA.
