I was pleased to join Sen. Nick Pisciottano last week to announce that more than $2 million in grants were awarded for 11 worthwhile projects in the 35th District. It takes strong voices in Harrisburg to make sure these dollars come back to the Mon Valley, and I’m happy to be one of those voices.

Pennsylvania's Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program helps older friends and neighbors stay in their homes while affording life's necessities, but the annual deadline for applications is approaching. The filing deadline is December 31. The program benefits eligible Pennsylvanians who are 65 or older, widows and widowers 50 or older, and people with disabilities 18 or older. Rebates range from $380 to $1,000.

The recent federal government shutdown was particularly hard on veterans who rely on programs such as SNAP. In Pennsylvania, there’s a way to donate during the holidays to support programs for the state’s nearly 700,000 veterans, service members and their families. 

The state Department of Military and Veterans Affairs manages several programs for tax-deductible donations. Donations can be made by individuals, corporations and companies. When an online donation is made, donors may also choose to enter honoree information, and a plaque in their honor will be displayed on the Virtual Donor Wall. Visit this page to learn more.

I want to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I hope you can cherish the time with family and friends, and may your New Year be happy and bright.
