Senator Lisa M. Boscola Elected Senate Majority Caucus Chair

Harrisburg, PA - November 12, 2026 - State Senator Lisa M. Boscola (D-Lehigh/Northampton) was elected today by her Democratic colleagues to serve as Majority Caucus Chair of the Pennsylvania Senate for the 2027-28 legislative session. Boscola will join the Senate Democratic leadership team as the caucus prepares to assume majority control of the chamber for the first time in more than three decades.

As Majority Caucus Chair, Boscola will play a key role in conducting caucus meetings, facilitating discussions on legislation and policy priorities, and working with fellow members of the majority leadership team to advance the caucus's legislative agenda.

"I am honored to have earned the trust and confidence of my colleagues to serve in this leadership role," said Boscola. "For the first time in more than 30 years, Senate Democrats have the opportunity to lead the chamber and deliver on priorities that have been stalled for far too long. With that opportunity comes a tremendous responsibility to deliver meaningful results for the people of Pennsylvania. I am excited to be part of a leadership team that is ready to get to work."

Boscola emphasized the importance of working collaboratively with Governor Josh Shapiro, the House of Representatives, and colleagues across the Senate to advance a shared legislative agenda focused on delivering meaningful results for Pennsylvanians.

"Pennsylvanians expect their elected leaders to work together and get things done," Boscola continued. "I look forward to working with our majority leadership team to build consensus, advance good legislation, and ensure every member of our caucus has a voice in shaping our priorities. We have a tremendous opportunity before us, and I intend to make the most of it."

Boscola's election as Majority Chair also comes as the Lehigh Valley and Northeast Pennsylvania gain a greater presence within the incoming Senate Democratic majority. Senator Nick Miller (D-Lehigh/Northampton) was elected Majority Policy Committee Chair, while Senator Marty Flynn (D-Lackawanna/Luzerne) was elected Majority Caucus Administrator. Their leadership roles, coupled with the election of incoming Senators Mark Pinsley and Brian Wrightson, strengthen the region's representation in Harrisburg.

"Our region has a strong and growing delegation, and I am excited about the opportunity to work together to ensure the needs and perspectives of the Lehigh Valley and Northeast Pennsylvania are part of the broader conversation," Boscola said. "We each bring different experiences to the table, but we share a commitment to delivering results, not just for our region, but for communities across the Commonwealth."
