Matt Baker, who became well-known for his campaigns against opioid and pornography addiction during his 13 terms as a Republican state Rep., has landed a new posting – courtesy of the Trump administration.

The former 68th District House member was quietly sworn in as regional director of the Office of Intergovernmental and External Affairs at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services office in Philadelphia two weeks ago.

The IEA serves as a bridge between federal social service efforts and state, city and tribal governments – helping to coordinate major health programs, like Medicare and Medicaid. Baker’s regional office covers Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia.

He has also been involved with more controversial pieces of legislation, including a bipartisan bill preventing the state Department of General Services from doing business with contractors that had boycotted Israeli products and a failed effort to label pornography a public health crisis.

“That (anti-porn bill) was an interesting piece of legislation that the Pennsylvania Family Institute had asked me to introduce. But it needed some more work; it was really just a rough draft,” he said. “Upon my resignation, I don't expect that particular bill to advance.”

Big-game trophy decision will be announced next week but will be very hard pressed to change my mind that this horror show in any way helps conservation of Elephants or any other animal.
