Dear Neighbor,

To all our constituents and partners, thank you for making my first 100 days in office as successful as possible for Cumberland and Dauphin counties. We look forward to continuing our work but want to take a quick moment to reflect on our community’s successes in the first 100 days together!

Sincerely,

Reopening the Lemoyne District Office

In an open house event, state Rep. Davidson and his dedicated staff welcomed community members to the newly reopened District Office. “Delivering constituent services for our community is job number one,” Rep. Davidson said. “I’m happy to open our District Office and make my staff available to residents of Cumberland and Dauphin for any state and local issues they need assistance with – whether it’s property tax rebates or veterans’ benefits claim, our office is open and ready to help.”

At the District Office, constituents can receive assistance with:

Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program: Helping seniors and eligible individuals apply for the state’s rebate program.
Senior Prescription Assistance Program: Ensuring seniors have access to affordable prescription drugs.
Unemployment Compensation Assistance: Aiding in filing claims and resolving benefits issues.
Veteran Benefits Qualifications: Assisting veterans with the filing and support for qualified benefits.
Pennsylvania Health and Human Services: Providing guidance on Medicaid, CHIP, and other public programs.
Licensing and Permitting: Offering support for various licensing and permitting issues involving PennDOT, the Department of State, the Department of Human Services, and the Department of Labor & Industry.

Serving Cumberland and Dauphin counties

Rep. Davidson has focused on enhancing constituent services and local community engagement including:

Transportation Study: Initiated a Pennsylvania Department of Transportation study examining truck traffic on Front Street in Harrisburg with the aim of restricting non-local truck traffic to enhance community safety and quality of life.

Community Engagement: Met with elected officials across Dauphin and Cumberland counties, including representatives from Camp Hill, East Pennsboro, Lemoyne, Wormleysburg, and Harrisburg counselors and supervisors. Discussions extended to collaborations with various school districts, such as Camp Hill, East Pennsboro, West Shore, and Harrisburg.

Satellite Offices for Enhanced Outreach: To bring services closer to residents, several satellite offices have been established in Harrisburg:

1st Thursdays at Alexander Grass Campus for Jewish Life
10 a.m. – 3 p.m. at 2986 N. 2nd St.

2nd Thursdays at Bethesda Mission Community Center
10 a.m. – 3 p.m. at 1438 Herr St.

3rd Thursdays at Broad Street Market
10 a.m. – 4 p.m. at 1233 N. 3rd St.

4th Thursdays at Madeline Olewine Memorial Library
11 a.m. – 3 p.m. at 2410 N. 3rd St.

Rep. Davidson has started championing grants aimed at boosting community and economic development grants, ensuring that local neighborhoods receive the resources needed to flourish. Additionally, he is actively addressing licensure and permitting challenges for local businesses, working to streamline processes and create a more supportive regulatory environment.

Legislating for Pennsylvania

Rep. Davidson’s legislative agenda has already made significant strides in addressing key community concerns. Notable legislative actions include:

Extending Civil Statute of Limitations for Childhood Sexual Assault Survivors: This legislation would provide a statutory two-year window to justice for childhood sexual abuse survivors, waiving sovereign and governmental immunity retroactively to allow survivors to seek justice against the Commonwealth and local agencies. Additionally, we introduced a joint resolution aimed at amending the Pennsylvania Constitution to give survivors a two-year period to file previously time-barred claims.
Lands Situate: This bill would authorize the Department of General Services to grant certain lands situated in Harrisburg’s City to the Susquehanna Regional Transportation Authority.
Establishing Low-Income Household Water Assistance Program in Pennsylvania: This legislation would ensure equitable access to water, safeguard public health, and strengthen community stability by providing assistance to households and grants to service providers.
Bipartisan First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit: This bill would provide a 25% realty transfer tax credit for qualifying individuals who are either new residents of the Commonwealth or current residents who have not purchased a home in the previous five years.
