The Pennsylvania Senate has approved Senate Bill 269, aiming to decrease the Personal Income Tax rate to 2.8% and eliminate the Gross Receipts Tax on energy starting Jan. 1, 2025. Senator Majority Whip Ryan Aument (R-36) expressed the following: "Pennsylvania’s working-class families are being told that the economy is robust, that ‘Bidenomics’ is working, and that Americans are thriving – but they don’t feel it." Aument emphasized the need to alleviate financial burdens on Pennsylvania families, citing significant inflation challenges faced by residents. He highlighted the Senate Republican proposal's focus on investing $3 billion to reduce utility costs and increase take-home pay, describing it as the "largest tax cut for working families in our Commonwealth's history."###
