HARRISBURG, May 6 – State Rep. Leanne Krueger, D-Delaware, was honored on Monday with the Humane Leadership Award by nonprofit advocacy organization Humane World for Animals. A longtime advocate for better treatment of animals throughout the commonwealth and nationwide, Krueger most recently authored House Bill 994, which would prohibit the trade of animal parts from protected species. The bill passed the PA House in June with bipartisan support. “The trafficking of wild animal parts encourages the senseless poaching of some of the world’s most majestic animal life,” said Krueger. “It upsets ecosystems and threatens endangerment and extinction. My colleagues and I will continue to advance legislation to protect animals in Pennsylvania.” Krueger received the award during a press conference held by Humane World for Animals and the PA House Animal Protection Caucus, of which she is a member. “Humane World for Animals has been a dedicated supporter of our animal protection bills over the years,” said Krueger. “I’m grateful for this recognition and for their continued advocacy for animal welfare.” Read more

DELAWARE COUNTY, April 1 – On Monday, PECO filed a request with the Pennsylvania Public Utilities Commission to significantly increase their gas and electric rates beginning next year. On average, these rate hikes would cost families an additional $20.08 per month for electricity and $14.52 per month for natural gas. Members of the Delaware County Legislative Delegation offered the following statements in response: “PECO’s request to raise their prices comes at a time when we’re already seeing unprecedented expenses for basic necessities due to rapid tech innovation, extreme federal actions and our county’s strained health care systems,” Rep. Gina Curry said. “This proposed increase is not just about dollars, it’s about equity. Our most vulnerable communities are already carrying the heaviest burden, and they should not be asked to pay more for basic necessities. Energy is a right, not a luxury.” “Our working families are contending with surging prices on everything from groceries to gasoline,” said Speaker of the House Joanna McClinton, D-Phila./Delaware. “In Harrisburg we’re working to help families manage the economic uncertainty stemming from mismanagement in Washington with policies like the Working Pennsylvanians Tax Credit, but a price hike in their monthly PECO bill makes it harder and harder for families to get ahead.” Read more
