We won’t have the funds for common goods if we don’t ask everyone to pay their fair share. Pennsylvania has an upside-down tax system, where those at the bottom of the income scale pay disproportionately more. Those at the bottom pay 12%, those in the middle pay 10%, but those at the top only pay 4%. The Solution The Fair Share Tax Plan: • Raises the income tax on dividends, capital gains, business profits, estates, royalties, and gambling winnings. • Cuts the income tax on wages and interest. • Will generate $2 billion while only raising taxes on less than 20% of Pennsylvanians. 50% of the new revenues will come from the top 1%; 72% from the top 5%; 88% of Pennsylvanians will see their taxes go down or remain unchanged. WHY REP.

    A RESOLUTION Urging the Lancaster County Democratic Committee to request that elected officials be held accountable for the SEDITIOUS ACTS which led up to the Insurrection at the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021. WHEREAS, the Attorney General of Texas filed a meritless lawsuit Texas v Pennsylvania, et al in the Supreme Court of the United States to throw out millions of legitimate ballots cast by Pennsylvanians on November 3, 2020. On December 10, 2020, five members of Pennsylvania's Congressional delegation Representatives Fred Keller, Mike Kelly, John Joyce, Dan Meuser, and Scott Perry joined the amicus brief, “U.S. Representative Mike Johnson and 125 other Members” including 24 Pennsylvania State Senators (full list of names attached) and 72 members of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives (full list of names attached) in three separate amicus briefs filed in Texas v Pennsylvania, et al; and WHEREAS, Senator Doug Mastriano along with members of the Senate Majority Policy Committee organized a taxpayer-funded public hearing on Wednesday, November 25, 2020, to investigate the integrity of elections but was in fact a forum to publicly air witness testimonies that claimed wide-spread 2020 election fraud which had been rejected by dozens of state and federal courts as irrelevant and non-credible; and WHEREAS, United States Congressman Scott Perry, as reported by The New York Times and various news outlets, brokered a meeting between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Clark from the Department of Justice in an attempt to install an acting Attorney General who sympathized with Mr. Trump’s claims of election fraud; and WHEREAS, on January 6, 2021, hundreds stormed the United States Capitol and even after this insurrection, 147 Members of Congress voted to sustain objections to certify the electoral results in two states where Trump lost (Arizona and Pennsylvania); and WHEREAS, State Senator Douglas Mastriano organized bus trips for Washington, DC for a rally on January 6, 2021.

That is why, in recent newspaper articles and commentary, the American Council of Trustees and Alumni (ACTA) has called for a radical restructuring of the board. In recent days, we have also been pleased to submit guidance on specific issues of board governance to the Pennsylvania Auditor General as he prepares to provide you with a special report. Since, ultimately, you—members of the legislature—will be responsible for any statutory changes, I want to take the opportunity to highlight some recommendations. By way of introduction, ACTA is an independent nonprofit organization devoted to academic freedom, academic excellence, and accountability in higher education. For over 15 years, ACTA has worked with policymakers and trustees across the country to promote academic quality and affordability. Our Institute for Effective Governance focuses specifically on higher education governance.

    Legislative Locator Legislative Locator A Monthly Publication of The Pennsylvania Municipal League June 2019 TAKE ACTION! Ask Your House Member to Cosponsor Reps. Greiner and Grove’s Pension Sustainability Plan Representatives Greiner (R-Lancaster) and Seth Grove (R-York) has put forth cosponsorship memo HCO2187. Their bill is slated to make changes to municipal pensions based on Auditor General DePasquale’s 2015 Municipal Pension Task Force Report to Governor Wolf. Provisions of their bill for new hires include – capping overtime at 10% of salary; basing final average salary on the last 60 months of service; and increasing retirement age to 55 years and 25 years of service for uniformed employees. Other provisions include – reducing the assumed rate of return on pension investments over 10 years to a more attainable rate; requiring the use of GASB accounting standards; prohibiting the use of pension state aid for plan administration; requiring disclosure of pension costs; prohibiting Deferred Retirement Option Plans (DROPs); and prohibiting plan changes that would result in plan funding dipping below 80%. This proposal does not change the type of pension available to uniformed employees or the benefits currently provided under Act 600 or the Third Class City Code. This proposal should be supported in a bipartisan manner as the provisions are coming directly from the Auditor General. Please call your House Member and request that he or she signs on to this important proposal. Thank you for Answering our Action Alert on House Bill 1400 Local officials were a huge force in slowing down the consideration of HB 1400 by the House Consumer Affairs Committee this month.
