In this Update:
York County Residents Inducted into Pennsylvania Voter Hall of FameYork County residents from the 31st Senatorial District were honored for an extraordinary milestone in civic participation when they were inducted into Pennsylvania’s Voter Hall of Fame. I was proud to present Pennsylvania Senate Citations to these individuals in recognition of their remarkable achievement of voting in every general election for at least 50 consecutive years. This level of consistency represents a lifelong commitment to public service and engagement in our democratic process. Over five decades, these citizens have participated in elections at every level, helping to shape their communities, the commonwealth and the nation through their consistent involvement. 31st Senatorial District Residents: Share Your Input on Proposed Deer Season ChangeA proposal under consideration, Senate Bill 1244, would move the opening day of firearms deer season to the Monday after Thanksgiving. This potential change could impact participation and scheduling for many. To better understand the perspective of hunters in my district, I am asking for your input. Please take a moment to complete the brief survey and share your views on how this proposal may affect you and deer season participation overall. Town Hall on School Property Tax Elimination Set for East ManchesterSchool property taxes continue to place a growing burden on Pennsylvania families, increasing each year with no end in sight. To address this, Rep. Wendy Fink and I have introduced the School Property Tax Elimination Act and want to share our proposal with you. We invite you to join us for a town hall on this issue on April 30 from 5-7 p.m. at Alert Fire Hall, 3118 N. George St., Emigsville. The event will be hosted by Rep. Joe D’Orsie, Rep. Fink, former Rep. Frank Ryan and myself. Even a recent analysis by the Independent Fiscal Office confirms that our School Property Tax Elimination Act would boost business investment while providing immediate relief to families. This town hall is an opportunity to learn more, ask questions and share your perspective. Residents are encouraged to RSVP by calling Rep. D’Orsie’s office at 717-840-4711 or registering online. Beware of Investment Scams on Facebook, Instagram, WhatsAppFraudulent invest schemes are appearing on Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp featuring recognizable figures, like Cathie Wood (Ark Invest), Joe Kernen (CNBC) or Kevin O’Leary (CNBC) without their permission. In these “pump and dump” schemes, victims are lured into online groups and convinced to invest in cryptocurrencies or low-priced stocks. The scammers advertise, hype and recommend buying the stocks or cryptocurrencies, increasing their prices, and then sell when the price is high, while the victims lose their money. Attorney General Dave Sunday encourages anyone who may have been a victim of these types of scams to report it to the Bureau of Consumer Protection at 800-441-2555 or scams@attorneygeneral.gov. Women Veterans Invited to Submit Their Stories of ServiceWomen who served in the armed forces are encouraged to register by May 8 for a state Capitol ceremony honoring their service. The 4th annual Women Veterans Day Commemoration will be held on Wednesday, June 10. Women veterans across the commonwealth are invited to submit entries for a display featuring each participant’s likeness alongside a personal reflection on “What Service Means to Me.” In advance of the in-person ceremony, a virtual display will be accessible online beginning June 8 at the website of the event’s host, SenatorPennycuick.com.
