“Farmers are being financially crippled by crop damage, while our woodlands are being decimated by the deer herd, and the legacy of hunting is waning, Steele said. “These bills are a collaborative effort with many organizations to revive hunting, while also being stewards of our wildlife and natural resources.” Read more
HARRISBURG, June 11 — Today, H.B. 2338 , introduced by state Rep. Elizabeth Fiedler, D-Phila. , was approved unanimously by the House Consumer Protection, Technology and Utilities Committee. The bill would update the duties and powers of the Pennsylvania Energy Development Authority, which was chartered in 1982 with the purpose of financing energy and energy-related projects. If enacted, H.B. 2338 would enable PEDA to apply for and leverage billions of federal dollars available through the Inflation Reduction Act to incentivize investments in Pennsylvania clean-energy projects. With the federal government now implementing the $550 billion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the $783 billion Inflation Reduction Act, Fiedler said she believes this presents an incredible opportunity for Pennsylvania. “These federal investments can jumpstart energy production in Pennsylvania, create good local jobs, and reduce energy costs for consumers, but only if we have the right vehicle to seize the funds,” Fiedler said. “PEDA, our state’s public energy financing authority, is well-suited to play this role, but first we must modernize PEDA to ensure it can maximize its role as an energy accelerator and job creator.” The legislation’s co-prime sponsor, state Rep. Mandy Steele, D-Allegheny, placed the legislation within the context of the state’s long history of energy production. Read more

“Not all driveway sealants are created equal. Driveway sealants that are high in PAHs – such as sealants using coal tar – can endanger public health,” Steele said. “The PAHs in a freshly paved parking lot or playground is what gives off that strong odor. With more sealants available that are safer, we should eliminate the sealants that are toxic to the health of Pennsylvanians.” Read more

“This funding further cements the state’s efforts to combat climate change,” said Steele, D-Allegheny. “Since the largest share of greenhouse gas emissions comes from the cars and trucks we drive, moving to electric vehicles will greatly reduce these emissions, but we need to have the infrastructure available to support not only typical daily travel, but also long-distance travel. This is a step in the right direction.” Read more
