  • Pennsylvania Delegation Letter to Congressional Leadership on LIHTC
    April 20, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Mitch McConnell Speaker of the House Majority Leader United States House of Representatives United States Senate Washington DC 20515 Washington DC 20510 The Honorable Kevin McCarthy The Honorable Charles Schumer Minority Leader Minority Leader United States House of Representatives United States Senate Washington DC 20515 Washington DC 20510 Dear Speaker Pelosi, Leader McConnell, Leader McCarthy, and Leader Schumer: As you consider additional legislative priorities related to COVID-19, we respectfully urge you to support critical improvements to the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Program. The LIHTC program, administered jointly by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and state tax credit allocating agencies, provides federal tax credits to developers in exchange for their investment in developing and preserving affordable rental housing. The Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency, for instance, monitors more than 1,100 affordable housing communities receiving LIHTC. Across the country, LIHTC has led to the development and preservation of over 3 million affordable rental units. As American families struggle to cover health care, utilities, and food costs during this health and economic crisis, access to safe, permanent housing is critical to prevent homelessness and poverty. Targeted public-private investments help provide desperately needed affordable housing for low-income families. As you weigh additional federal assistance measures to address COVID-19, we strongly encourage you to include the following LIHTC changes: Enact a minimum 4% credit rate used to finance acquisitions and Housing Bond- financed developments. LIHTC rates fluctuate in response to market interest movements. Tied to declining federal borrowing rates, the value of the 4% credit rate is closer to 3% – the lowest it has ever been.

  • November 7, 2018 Pennsylvania Was One of the Most Closely Watched
    Keep up to date with our blog: Follow us on Twitter @BuchananGov knowingGovernmentRelations.com November 7, 2018 Pennsylvania was one of the most closely watched states in the country on Election Day. Redistricting of Congressional seats meant a shakeup was coming for the Commonwealth’s 18-member delegation. At the statewide level, the Governor and one of two U.S. Senators were on the ballot. In the state legislature, half of the 50 Senate seats (even- numbered districts) and the entire 203-seat House of Representatives were up for grabs. During the 2017-18 legislative session the Pennsylvania House of Representatives was comprised of 121 Republicans and 82 Democrats. After last night’s election, the 2018-19 legislative session will have 109 Republicans and 94 Democrats, after the Democrats picked up 11 seats. In the Pennsylvania Senate, Republicans had a majority during the 2017-18 by a margin of 34-16. Yesterday, Senate Democrats picked up 5 seats, narrowing the Republican’s majority. Next session will have 29 Republican members and 21 Democratic members. The 18-member Pennsylvania delegation had only 6 Democrats during the 115th Congress (2017-19). When new members are sworn into the 116th Congress next year, Pennsylvania’s delegation will be split, with 9 Republicans and 9 Democrats. Governor Governor Tom Wolf (D) and his running mate for Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman (D) defeated the ticket of Scott Wagner (R) and Jeff Bartos (R). Wolf received 2,799,1559 votes (57.66%), while Wagner got 1,981,027 votes (40.81%). U.S. Senate Senator Bob Casey (D) defeated Lou Barletta (R) by a margin of over half a million votes.

  • September 18, 2020 the Honorable Alex Azar Secretary U.S
    September 18, 2020 The Honorable Alex Azar Secretary U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 200 Independence Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20201 Dear Secretary Azar: We are writing in support of Pennsylvania Governor Wolf’s letter of August 21, 2020, in which he raised concerns over the federal government’s actions to divert necessary COVID-19 testing supplies away from Pennsylvania. These actions—particularly the diversion of supplies and reagents manufactured by Hologic and Roche—have made it harder for hospitals and laboratories in our state to keep up with the demand for COVID-19 tests, thereby jeopardizing the progress Pennsylvania has made in curtailing the spread of this virus. We echo Governor Wolf’s concerns, and request your prompt attention to this matter. Pennsylvania was one of the earlier and harder-hit states in the pandemic. As of writing, the state has seen 148,683 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and 7,934 deaths.1 While the daily reported numbers of new cases and deaths has decreased significantly from their peak in April, hundreds of new COVID-19 cases continue to appear each day. The state’s ongoing containment efforts will be severely hampered if adequate testing is not available. Hospitals across Pennsylvania have reported testing supply diversions or stoppages at the order of the White House, forcing providers who would normally be able to obtain COVID-19 test results within 24 to 48 hours to send specimens to outside laboratories, including Quest and LabCorp. This increases the risk of delays in getting test results to patients, which in turn increases the risk of continued viral transmission in Pennsylvania homes and communities.

  • 03/19/2021 the Honorable Thomas Vilsack Secretary United States Department of Agriculture 1400 Independence Ave., S.W
    03/19/2021 The Honorable Thomas Vilsack Secretary United States Department of Agriculture 1400 Independence Ave., S.W. Washington, DC 20250 Dear Secretary Vilsack: We write to congratulate you on your confirmation and request your support in researching and combatting the Spotted Lanternfly (SLF), an invasive species of planthopper insect from southeast Asia. We have worked with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) on a bipartisan basis for the past two years to address the negative impacts of the SLF on our farmers and agricultural workers. Additional resources are still needed to rid our regions of this pest, and as you finalize your Fiscal Year 2022 (FY22) budget request, we urge you to request an increase in support to research and control the SLF. Spotted Lanternflies were first found in Berks County, Pennsylvania in 2014. Since that initial discovery, they have been found throughout the states of Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, Connecticut, West Virginia, Ohio and Delaware, and they continue to spread across the country. These invasive pests are threatening our agricultural industries including vineyards, orchards, ornamental nurseries, and hardwoods. According to economic research from the Center for Rural Pennsylvania, the damage caused by the SLF could cost the Commonwealth $324 million annually and cause the loss of over 2,800 jobs in Pennsylvania alone1. In Chester County alone, up to $66.9 million in orchards, vineyards, Christmas tree farms, and nursery products are potentially at risk from damage by SLF2. Grape growers are at a particularly significant risk of damage with reported yield losses, reduction in fruit quality, and even vine death.
