The House Local Govt Committee is holding a hearing about posting public information. The PA News Media Association argues for maintaining the monopoly on forcing taxpayers to pay for ads placed in their print and/or digital editions to disseminate public information. Agree?

Should public information come with a price tag? We don't think so! 🚫 Let's bring transparency into the 21st century! Contact your state senator & urge them to support SB 194. Let's make public information free & accessible for everyone! #Transparency #LocalGovernment

Public info shouldn’t come with a price tag. Outdated PA law requires notices in print papers, used only by 9% of residents (and dropping). SB 194 gives local govs flexibility, including posting online where people look. Support transparency. Back SB 194. palegis.us/legislation/bills…

The PA House passed a bill to set a flat annual fee on PA's EV drivers that'll increase over the years, 190-12. It heads back to the Senate. SB 656 sets the fee at $200 in 2025 & up to $286 by 2030. Plug-ins would pay 25% of that. legis.state.pa.us/.../billin…...
