VETERANS DAY

My district office will be closed on Tuesday, November 11 in observance of Veterans Day. We will resume normal hours on Wednesday, November 12.

 

Thank you, veterans, for your service to our country.

NO SHUTOFFS DURING THE SHUTDOWN

The federal government shutdown has delayed the opening of the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) until December 3. I joined my colleagues in the House in a letter urging the state Public Utility Commission to pause utility shutoffs for LIHEAP-eligible households during this delay.

 

Governor Shapiro has announced that Pennsylvania utility companies will not disconnect heat or electricity in November for LIHEAP-eligible residents, ensuring families are protected until the regular winter moratorium begins in December.

 

Many electric and gas companies also offer their own utility assistance programs for qualifying customers, available in addition to LIHEAP.

PENNIE OPEN ENROLLMENT

The open enrollment period for Pennie, the state’s health insurance marketplace, is now open. Shop for plans and enroll in high-quality health coverage at pennie.com by December 15th to get coverage starting on January 1, 2026.

 

Please note that due to federal law, Pennie expects changes that impact on the cost of health coverage as well as other enrollment requirements. Learn more about those changes here.
