“Today, I voted to prevent tax increases on working families and ensure their hard-earned dollars are protected,” Rothman said. “I firmly believe that government needs to live within its means and respect taxpayers, remembering that every dollar it spends comes from their pockets.”

“Staying the course on tax reduction is critical to growing our economy, supporting job creation and encouraging entrepreneurship,” Rothman said.

While technological advancements have made home-based businesses more viable than ever, outdated local ordinances have failed to keep pace. “This legislation eliminates unnecessary red tape by streamlining the processes individuals use to operate a home-based business,” Rothman said. “The bill would ensure home-based businesses are not forced to pay unnecessary fees or obtain cumbersome licenses and permits.”

HARRISBURG – Senator Greg Rothman (R-34) announced today that a critical school funding change he worked to advance has been passed by the state Senate and is slated to become law as part of the Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget agreement. The measure ensures students and taxpayers in his district are treated fairly.

“As a member of the Basic Education Funding Commission, I was dissatisfied with the funding formula because it unfairly penalized taxpayers and students in rapidly growing districts, including Cumberland Valley,” Rothman said. “I’ve been working since the Commission wrapped up its work in 2024 to correct this shortcoming; I’m thankful for the collaboration and support of my Cumberland County colleagues in the House.”

The funding formula adjustments in SB 315 will benefit every school in the 34th district.

Friends,
It's Chairman Rothman. It shouldn’t be controversial to say this:
ONLY AMERICAN CITIZENS SHOULD VOTE IN AMERICAN ELECTIONS.
But right now in Washington, something that basic still requires a fight.

The SAFEGUARD AMERICAN VOTER ELIGIBILITY ACT, or SAVE Act for short, would simply require documentary proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections.

That’s it. No loopholes. Just common-sense safeguards to protect the integrity of our elections. We have to present our proof of citizenship when registering a car at the DMV, applying to get a Social Security card, or doing many other things in regular daily life. WE SHOULD HAVE AT LEAST THE SAME LEVEL OF SCRUTINY WHEN REGISTERING TO VOTE.

We Need to Pass the SAVE Act 🇺🇸 — Chairman Greg Rothman - Archive of Political Emails

I’m proud that SENATOR DAVE MCCORMICK HAS ALREADY ENDORSED the SAVE Act, and now the bill is awaiting a vote in the U.S. Senate. But we cannot assume it will pass without pressure from grassroots Republicans like you.

Today, I’m asking you to stand with the Republican Party of Pennsylvania and make your voice heard.
CONTACT YOUR SENATORS AND LEGISLATORS AND TELL THEM TO PASS THE SAVE ACT IMMEDIATELY. Because protecting the vote means protecting our country.

Calls for passage of the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, which would require documents proving U.S. citizenship to register for federal elections.
