Issue Position: Property Taxes

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2018

I support property tax reform to ease the tax burden of seniors and working families in our district. Why? Because I am here to serve the residents of the 150th and not special interests.
When property taxes are eliminated big businesses get a tax cut while the burden paying for public schools, of which property taxes are a major source, falls on older and working Pennsylvanians, and on small business owners, in the form of higher income and sales taxes.
Republicans know this as well, which is why they have never eliminated property taxes despite 12 years of control in our legislature. I support property tax reforms that will ease the burden on older residents and working Pennsylvanians, the people who need it most, and not corporations.
