  • February 15, 2021 Dear Governor Wolf
    February 15, 2021 Dear Governor Wolf: CompetePA is a coalition comprised of statewide and regional business groups, small- and medium- sized businesses, as well as Fortune 500 companies. The coalition, which represents more than half the Commonwealth’s private sector employers, was formed in 2005 to help create a competitive business tax climate that encourages job growth in Pennsylvania. On behalf of over 160 businesses and organizations across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the CompetePA Coalition writes in opposition to the proposed tax increases to businesses, large and small across Pennsylvania, as laid out in your 2021-22 budget proposal. It is no secret that Pennsylvania has one of the least competitive business tax environments in the country. For 2021, we rank 43rd in the nation in the Tax Foundation’s “Corporate Tax Ranking”. At 9.99 percent, we have the highest non-graduated Corporate Net Income Tax (CNIT) rate in the country. While we appreciate your proposal to lower this rate, tying the rate reduction to combined reporting – a policy that adds complexity, uncertainty, and cost to business – ultimately further negatively impacts Pennsylvania’s competitive standing. While CompetePA has historically focused on just the CNIT rate and its structure, we would be remiss if we also didn’t share our opposition to the proposal to raise the Personal Income Tax (PIT) rate. Our PIT rate is one of the most competitive rates in the country, at 3.07 percent. It’s also the rate paid by many small businesses in our Commonwealth. As regions everywhere look to recover and thrive in a post-pandemic world, now more than ever we need to ensure Pennsylvania is competitively positioned versus the competition.

  • 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.

  • 2020 PA Primary Developments & Notes Republican PA GOP House
    2020 PA Primary Developments & Notes Republican PA GOP House and Senate Goals in November General Election: Although there are 17 Democratic-held seats in districts that Trump won, the release specifically pinpointed House Districts 33, 55, 72, and 123 as “just a few targets for Republicans” in the upcoming election. House Minority Leader Frank Dermody (D-Allegheny) represents the least Trump friendly district of those four targets, with the president carrying the 33rd state House District by 5 points over Sec. Hillary Clinton in 2016, according to DailyKos. Dermody’s closest reelection bid since the last two presidential elections was in 2014 when he fended off Republican Sean Watson by 6 points, according to Ballotpedia. Dermody is slated to face Carrie DelRosso, an Oakmont Borough Councilmember and businesswoman, for the seat in the fall. State Rep. Frank Burns (D-Cambria) represents the most Trump friendly district of the four targets with Trump winning the 72nd state House District by 43 points over Clinton in 2016. Burns’ closest reelection bid since the past two presidential elections was in 2018 when he edged out Republican Gerald Carnicella by 5 points, according to Ballotpedia. Burns will face Republican Howard Terndrup for his reelection bid in November. State Rep. Joe Petrarca’s (D-Westmoreland) 55th state House District is also very favorable to Trump with the president carrying his district by 33 points in 2016, according to DailyKos. Petrarca ran unopposed in 2018 and his closest reelection bid since the past two presidential elections was in 2012 when he defeated Republican John Hauser, although his 2016 victory over Republican Michael Geiselhart was a 13 point win, according to Ballotpedia.

  • University Integrations Public Comments Batch 2 (5/27/21
    DATE PLAN GROUP OTHER COMMENT / SOURCE INFORMATION NAME (GROUP) 5/27/2021 5:56 Northeast Staff, I am very much supportive of the integration. I think it will provide needed changes in structure given the new climate of higher Ed, along with Plan Alumni/ increased opportunities for students throughout the triad. Donor However, I was so disappointed to hear that Recreation Management was not listed in the program array. I believe this is a mistake and does not support the working needs of PA (as almost all of our graduates stay in PA). These individuals staff YMCAs, youth programs, state parks, event centers, venues, and so much more. This program provides skills and necessary curriculum to make students successful in these fields. This program is filled with students who are truly passionate about their coursework and the prospect of bettering the future. This is the only program of its kind to be offered within the triad and Lock Haven University is the ideal location. With hard decisions to be made, I don’t doubt that we can take a harder look at programs and efficiencies, but I ask you to reconsider eliminating the Recreation Management program. I am confident by eliminating this program you will be doing this triad and the state a disservice. 5/27/2021 7:40 West Plan Alumni/ Auxiliary Please define Brand Identity" will remain in tact needs defined with examples and how the alumni can identify with that definition. Change is Donor, employee tough and specifics to how it relates to alumni (plaid, boro, logos, EUP, traditions) would be helpful.

  • March 30, 2020 the Honorable Tom Wolf Governor of Pennsylvania 225
    March 30, 2020 The Honorable Tom Wolf Governor of Pennsylvania 225 Main Capitol Harrisburg, PA 17120 RE: U.S. Department of Homeland Security memorandum regarding residential construction Dear Governor Wolf: As we are sure you are aware, on March 28th the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued a new “Advisory Memorandum on Identification of Essential Critical Infrastructure Workers During COVID-19 Response”. We write today asking that you review this memorandum and consider placing all residential construction on your essential business list as the memorandum identifies. This would include your guidance to all “essential businesses” on proper safety protocols, requiring social distancing measures which can protect the workforce and allow operations to continue. During this unprecedented time, we must put public health and safety first. Operational critical infrastructure is vital during the response to the COVID-19 emergency for both public health and safety as well as community well-being. Critical infrastructure industries have a special responsibility in these times to continue operations, and the U.S. DHS has identified construction as one of those industries. In addition to the identified critical need of construction, we also believe this work, operated under the proper safety protocols, is essential now due to its role in continuing economic and societal functions post pandemic. We thank you for your time and attention to this matter and ask for your urgent consideration. Sincerely, Senator Joe Scarnati Senator Jake Corman Senator Patrick Browne President Pro Tempore Majority Leader Chair, Appropriations The Honorable Tom Wolf Page 2 March 30, 2020 Senator John Gordner Senator Bob Mensch Senator Ryan Aument Majority Whip Majority Caucus Chair Majority Caucus Secretary Senator Kim Ward Senator David Argall Majority Caucus Administrator Chair, Majority Policy Committee .

  • August 10, 2021 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi the Honorable Steny
    August 10, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Steny Hoyer Speaker Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader Hoyer, As we advance legislation to rebuild and renew America’s infrastructure, we encourage you to continue your commitment to combating the climate crisis by including critical clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives in the upcoming infrastructure package. These incentives will play a critical role in America’s economic recovery, alleviate some of the pollution impacts that have been borne by disadvantaged communities, and help the country build back better and cleaner. The clean energy sector was projected to add 175,000 jobs in 2020 but the COVID-19 pandemic upended the industry and roughly 300,000 clean energy workers were still out of work in the beginning of 2021.1 Clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives are an important part of bringing these workers back. It is critical that these policies support strong labor standards and domestic manufacturing. The importance of clean energy tax policy is made even more apparent and urgent with record- high temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, unprecedented drought across the West, and the impacts of tropical storms felt up and down the East Coast. We ask that the infrastructure package prioritize inclusion of a stable, predictable, and long-term tax platform that: Provides long-term extensions and expansions to the Production Tax Credit and Investment Tax Credit to meet President Biden’s goal of a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035; Extends and modernizes tax incentives for commercial and residential energy efficiency improvements and residential electrification; Extends and modifies incentives for clean transportation options and alternative fuel infrastructure; and Supports domestic clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation manufacturing.

It begins with welcoming everyday citizens that are motivated to join our charge so that we can elevate and amplify their voices in public policy—making them more powerful and influential than they could be on their own. It comes full circle when AFP-PA successfully mobilizes activists in support of principled policy leadership or to hold lawmakers accountable for harmful policies. It is about consistently pushing activists and lawmakers alike to be better and make a difference. From building diverse coalitions or providing lawmakers with the support they need to stand on principle, this approach has allowed our organization to emerge as a change-maker in the state.

    April 21, 2020 Secretary Teresa Miller Pennsylvania Department of Human Services 625 Forster Street Harrisburg, PA 17120 Dear Secretary Miller, Re: Safe Food Purchasing Options for SNAP Recipients As legislators, we understand the economic precariousness of our constituents since the onset of the COVID-19 outbreaks and that it has increased the need for people to access the SNAP benefits program to ensure food security. We understand the need for SNAP recipients to have safe access to groceries which would include access to online grocery shopping and delivery services. More than one-third of SNAP households include a family member who is an older adult or someone with a disability and many of these families rely on ride-sharing or public transportation options to go grocery shopping. Leaving their homes to make in-person payments or even using neighborhood volunteer-based buddy systems further increases the risk of contracting COVID-19 for an already at-risk population. We support DHS in submitting a waiver that allows SNAP benefit users to complete online grocery orders (and allow for home delivery service) so that they may adhere to the COVID-19 response guidelines outlined by the state government. This waiver will be a good start to supporting our most vulnerable population. Additionally, we encourage you to look ahead to broadening the options and abilities for using and accepting SNAP benefits. From across the Commonwealth, we hear concerns about the safety and security of local food growers and producers who keep our food supply safe and steady and the financial security of these industries that are considered essential.
