House Republican Policy Committee Chairman Joshua D. Kail (R-Beaver/Washington), Rep. Donna Scheuren (R-Montgomery), and other lawmakers will host the third hearing in the “Historic Tax Cuts” series titled “The Benefit of Republican Tax Cuts; the Detriment of Democrat Property Tax Hikes.” The event aims to discuss House Bill 2388, which proposes reducing the Personal Income Tax and eliminating the Gross Receipts Tax on electricity. Additionally, the hearing will address concerns regarding the Democrats’ Basic Education Funding Commission (BEFC) report, which Republicans argue fails to adequately support students and places an undue burden on citizens.
Participants in the hearing include Kail, Scheuren, members of the committee, and several testifiers: Andrew Holman, policy analyst at Commonwealth Foundation; Dr. Frank Gallagher, superintendent of Souderton School District; Chris Canavan, president of W.B. Homes and township supervisor for Lower Salford Township; Wendell Weaver, vice president of Alderfer Glass; and Keith Freed, tax collector for Franconia Township.
The hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, June 18 at 10 a.m., located at 379 Main St., Harleysville, PA 19438. Barring any technical difficulties, it will be streamed online at PAGOPPolicy.com.
