The area’s four state representatives were sworn in for new terms on Tuesday at the Pennsylvania Capitol in Harrisburg.

The lawmakers took the oath with their peers at the historic legislative building.

Democrats hold a razor-thin majority in the Pennsylvania House and State Rep. Joanna McClinton, a Democrat, was reelected as speaker.

State Rep. Tina Davis, a Democrat from Bristol Township, was sworn in today for her eighth two-year term.

In addition to her role as a lawmaker, Davis was reelected as the caucus secretary for the Pennsylvania House Democrats last month. She was first appointed to the leadership position in the 2021-2022 legislative session.

“As caucus secretary, Davis plays a crucial role in supporting the efficient and effective functioning of the House Democratic Caucus,” her office said.

“I am honored to continue serving the people of the Bristol-Levittown area and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,” Davis said. “With the support of my colleagues, I will work tirelessly to ensure our work in the House is transparent, effective, and focused on improving the lives of all Pennsylvanians. Together, we will push forward meaningful legislation that creates new opportunities, promotes equity, and strengthens communities.”

Davis serves the 141st Legislative District, which is made up of Bristol Borough and Bristol Township.

State Rep. Joe Hogan, a Republican from Middletown Township was sworn in today for his second term.

“It is an honor to be back in Harrisburg to represent the 142nd District,” said Hogan. “I will continue to fight for the common sense measures I fought for in my first term, like supporting working parents, fighting for early childhood education and supporting our schools.”

Hogan serves the 142nd Legislative District, which covers Lower Southampton Township, Langhorne Manor Borough, Langhorne Borough, Penndel Borough and portions of Middletown and Northampton townships.

State Rep. Jim Prokopiak, a Democrat from Falls Township, took the oath for a new term in the Pennsylvania House.

State Rep. K.C. Tomlinson, a Republican from Bensalem Township, was sworn in the Capitol. She is serving her third full term following a special election in March 2020.

“It continues to be the greatest honor of my life to serve the people of Bensalem and Hulmeville,” said Tomlinson. “I will continue to work tirelessly for my district, find common ground in Harrisburg, and get things done that benefit all Pennsylvanians.”

Tomlinson serves the 18th Legislative District that covers Bensalem Township and Hulmeville Borough.
