“Most public resources, such as SNAP and WIC, do not allow families to buy diapers with the money they are provided. It’s important that we recognize this critical problem facing Pennsylvania’s families with small children and adults with incontinence,” Pashinski said. “The lack of access to a clean, consistent supply of disposable undergarments is a serious health risk for many people, and we must do everything we can to address their needs.” Read more

HARRISBURG, Sept. 14 – State Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski joined House Democratic Policy Chairman Ryan Bizzarro, House Minority Leader Joanna McClinton and other House Democrats to support clean pre-canvassing legislation and urge support of free and fair elections. “Despite what some in the majority party would want you to believe, our elections are safe and secure and the things we want to do would only make them better,” said Pashinski, D-Luzerne. “By pre-canvassing mail-in ballots, it gives the time needed for counties to be able to process the ballots on election night and give all of us the results faster. This is something counties have been asking for and yet it has been tied up, thanks to the leaders on the other side of the aisle.” According to Pashinski, pre-canvassing involves election officials preparing mail-in and absentee ballots for counting. Currently, counties cannot start that process until 7 a.m. on Election Day and due to the increased number of these ballots being utilized in the November 2020 and May 2022 elections, Pennsylvanians have had to wait several days for final election results. Several House Democrats have introduced standalone legislation that would allow counties to pre-canvass mail-in and absentee ballots earlier – including Pashinski’s H.B. 982 . These have been referred to the House State Government Committee but have been held up by House Republican leadership. Pashinski said the lack of Read more

HARRISBURG, June 22 – State Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski, D-Luzerne, recently announced the approval of a Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program grant totaling $500,000 to the Greater Wilkes-Barre Industrial Fund for the Gateway Project 3.0 following April’s $2 million grant announcement for the project. “With the help of Governor Wolf and the approval of this grant, we’re proud to share we’ve helped secure $7 million in RACP funding for the Gateway project since 2019,” Pashinski said. “These dollars are critical to completing the revitalization of River Street into a dynamic and welcoming thoroughfare for residents and visitors alike. Once completed, the city of Wilkes-Barre will be an even more lively, shoppable, and livable place to live, work and visit.” Pashinski said the funding will be used to help create a mixed-use, five-story, urban development center complete with a 110-room hotel, rooftop bar and restaurant, breakfast cafe, and conference space. The center will showcase a panoramic view of the river, mountains and city skyline from the rooftop bar and restaurant. The conference center will also provide flexible, technologically advanced meeting space, including a balcony and terrace overlooking the Susquehanna River. The center will also feature a ground-level breakfast and lunch café, allowing outdoor seating on the corner of River and Market streets. “I truly appreciate Governor Wolf’s Read more
