March 14, 2016 Senator David G. Argall, Chairman Senate Majority Policy Committee Senate Box 203029 State Capitol Building Harrisburg, PA 17120 Re: Public Hearing on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Dear Sen. Argall: On behalf of our more than 7,500 members, the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) would like to highlight the positive societal and economic benefits of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) technology. AUVSI is the world’s largest non-profit organization devoted exclusively to advancing unmanned systems. It is clear that, once a federal regulatory framework is established, a burgeoning UAS market is waiting to be unleashed in Pennsylvania. According to an AUVSI study, during the first 10 years after UAS are integrated into the national airspace, nearly 3,000 jobs are forecasted to be created in Pennsylvania along with over $2.36 billion in economic impact. In fact, since the FAA announced it would grant exemptions for certain low-risk commercial UAS operations in May 2014, more than three dozen Pennsylvania businesses have already received permission to use unmanned aircraft for a variety of applications. For example, Agscan, based in Broomall, received a commercial exemption to examine the condition of crops across the state. Joshua Brown, a Navy veteran and an expert in search and rescue, founded the company in 2014 and uses UAS to assess an acre of crops each minute, detecting abnormalities that are not always visible to the human eye. Using aerial data the UAS collects, AgScan can quickly identify crops that need attention for irrigation or insect problems. Another example is Pittsburgh-based Identified Technologies, which has built its business around collecting visual, infrared and gas data with UAS.

United Methodist Advocacy in Pennsylvania November 30, 2018
United Methodist Advocacy in Pennsylvania November 30, 2018 The 2017-18 two-year legislative session in Pennsylvania concluded on November 30. All unfinished legislation ceases to exist. Any old legislation that is to be perpetuated needs to be reintroduced as new legislation in the new session beginning January 1, 2019. For practical intents and purposes, legislative activity ended in October. In the General Assembly, November was a time for administrative housekeeping and identifying party leadership for the coming session. Almost one-third of the space in this month’s report has to do with the changes to the General Assembly. For some, this might be tedious. For those who need this information, it will serve as a good starting point for identifying key leadership—though many legislative committee chairs will not be filled until the beginning of the upcoming session. Of course, outside the General Assembly, activity continues in Harrisburg. I have included several items that I found to be of interest. For those who want to receive legislative alerts and calls to action on political issues for the faith community, I refer you to the Pennsylvania Council of Churches online information—visit their website at: pachurches.org. Go to the “Advocacy” page, accessible through the menu at the top of the homepage. Here one can link to further information or subscribe to advocacy action notifications. Don’t forget the United Methodist Advocacy in Pennsylvania website: umadvocacypa.blogspot.com Furthermore, save the date for the weekend of May 18, 2019. We will be conducting a Faith and Politics Conference. The location will be Harrisburg, PA.

Copy of Letter to Administration Re Frack Public Health Study (002).Docx
March 17th, 2021 The Honorable Tom Wolf Governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania 508 Main Capitol Building Harrisburg, PA 17120 RE: Request for Action Dear Governor Wolf, Thank you for your recent support of the Delaware River Basin Commission’s efforts to protect our natural resources and drinking water supply. Please consider this correspondence as a formal request for your immediate action in response to the ongoing harm to the public’s health and well-being due to hydraulic fracturing. On March 4, 2021, the Environmental Health News published the results of an illuminating investigation that links hydraulic fracturing operations and exposure to toxic chemicals. This pilot study included five families residing in Westmoreland and Washington Counties, all living within miles of multiple hydraulic fracturing wells, pipelines, and compressor stations. Each family was monitored over 9 weeks through scientific data collection of urine, air, and water sampling. These samples were then analyzed using the best available technology to look for forty of the most common chemicals found in the emissions from fracking sites. The initial outcomes are alarming in terms of the effects on the long-term health and safety of these residents. Benzene and butylcyclohexane were among the chemicals found in both the drinking water and air samples. Breakdown products for the chemicals ethylbenzene, styrene, and toluene were found in the bodies of children living near fracking operations. For example, a nine-year-old participant showed levels of these harmful chemicals up to ninety-one times as high as the average American and substantially higher than levels seen in the average adult cigarette smoker.

Expanding Pharmacist-Provided Immunization Opportunities
Expanding Pharmacist-Provided Immunization Opportunities House Bill 91 and Senate Bill 274 Legislation: • House Bill 91 - introduced by Representative Seth Grove - currently in the House Health Committee. • Senate Bill 274 - introduced by Senator Judy Ward - currently in the Senate Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure Committee. Ask your legislators: • Ask your Representatives to vote for House Bill 91. • Ask your Senators to vote for SB 274. Facts About Immunizations: • Currently in Pennsylvania, there are approximately 9,500 certified pharmacist immunizers available to safely and conveniently administer vaccinations. • According to a 2008 article in the Journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics, “With supporting health policy, health education, and communication, health care settings beyond the traditional medical home (e.g. pharmacists) have the potential to effectively augment the vaccination efforts of more traditional settings to deliver vaccines to adolescents.” • Thirteen other states have no age restrictions for pharmacists providing immunizations. • Thirty-six states allow pharmacists to provide all immunizations to children of younger ages than provided in Pennsylvania. PPA supports expanding pharmacist-provided immunization opportunities because: • The public's unique access to pharmacists – including extended hours of operation and weekend availability, coupled with being a trusted health care professional – places pharmacies in an ideal position to have a major impact on reducing vaccine-preventable illness. • Pharmacists are trained to administer immunizations and are a trusted partner in patients overall health care. Talking Point Sheet for Pharmacists, Pharmacy Technicians and Pharmacy Students ONLY (Not for Distribution) House Co-Sponsor list: House Bill 91 sponsored by Rep. Seth Grove (R-196th District) Is your Representative a Co-Sponsor? If your Representative is a current co-sponsor of House Bill 91 (listed below), be sure to thank them.
