Dear Neighbor, I hope you are well. Happy holidays! As my staff and I head into a break for the holidays, I wanted to share my upcoming office hours, my recent visit to IBEW 126, and important application information for the Property Tax/Rent Rebate program and LIHEAP!

As always, I hope you find the information below informative and useful.

Upcoming Office Hours

Here are the following dates my office will be closed as we approach the holidays:

Tuesday, December 24 through Wednesday, January 1

If you need state-related assistance during this time, please leave a message at (484) 200-8263 or email [email protected] and a staff member will get back to you. My office will re-open on Thursday, January 2 at 9:30 a.m.

IBEW 126 Visit

On Friday I visited IBEW 126! It’s always good to spend some time in a union hall, but even better learning about the hardworking people of 126, their training, and the opportunity to receive pay and benefits that match the importance of the jobs they carry out.

Special thanks to Steve Lutz, who spent his afternoon with us, and local president Jason Acree.

Property Tax/Rent Rebate Deadline

Reminder! The property tax/rent rebate application deadline is Tuesday, December 31! This program provides a rebate ranging from $380 to $1,000 to eligible older adults and people with disabilities age 18 and older.
