PROPERTY TAX

Shortly before 9:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 14, 2006, the House joined the Senate in passing the largest and widest coverage senior citizen property tax rebate plan in the history of Pennsylvania.I was an active supporter of this plan, speaking in its favor twice on the House floor and actively encouraging my fellow Democrats in caucus to vote for it. It is a major step forward for stabilizing neighborhoods in Northeast Philadelphia, as it will greatly reduce the chances of a senior citizen having to sell his or her home in order to pay property taxes.
