Hohenstein announces state money for neighborhood projects
State Rep. Joe Hohenstein announced $7.75 million from a state grant approved by the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program that will support the Tioga Marine Terminal Revitalization project, Caring for Friends, AdvanSix Inc., the Police Athletic League of Philadelphia and the Tacony Boat Launch.
“With the amount of money coming to our neighborhoods, we’re going to be seeing some big changes,” Hohenstein said. “I’m proud of being able to work with Gov. Wolf and my colleagues in the House and Senate to make sure your tax dollars end up benefiting you and the spaces we use everyday. I’ve worked hard to make sure these projects get the financial support they need to make it across the finish line and benefit our communities for years to come.”
RACP projects are authorized in the Redevelopment Assistance section of a Capital Budget Itemization Act, have a regional or multi-jurisdictional impact and are meant to generate substantial increases or maintain current levels of employment, tax revenues or other measures of economic activity.
More information is available by contacting Hohenstein’s district office at 215-744-2600. ••

Democrats derail Markie’s Law
The state House of Representatives failed to override Gov. Tom Wolf’s veto of Markie’s Law, named in memory of Markie Mason, an 8-year-old Lawrence County boy who died after being stabbed 147 times in 2019. The killer had been paroled at the end of his minimum sentence for homicide, even after being convicted of committing two separate violent assaults of other inmates while in prison. The bill would have postponed consideration of a violent inmate’s parole an additional 24 months following the inmate’s minimum release date for each conviction of a violent offense while incarcerated. In addition, it would have suspended consideration of an inmate’s parole an additional 12 months if the inmate attempted to escape, smuggle contraband or retaliate or intimidate witnesses while incarcerated.
Sens. Tina Tartaglione and Jim Dillon voted for the bill. Rep. Martina White voted to override Wolf’s veto. Democratic Reps. Nancy Guenst, Kevin Boyle, Ed Neilson, Joe Hohenstein, Jason Dawkins, Isabella Fitzgerald and Jared Solomon voted against the override.
“I hope those who voted ‘no’ can’t sleep at night,” said Rep. Aaron Bernstine. “Harrisburg Democrats chose to let violent criminals walk freely among us today.” ••
Exporting LNG
The Senate Environmental and Energy Resources Committee held a hearing on legislation authored by Rep. Martina White that would create a task force to study making the Port of Philadelphia an export terminal for liquefied natural gas.
“I think we can all agree the war taking place between Ukraine and Russia has made everyone more aware of the need for an accessible and reliable energy source that does not put the United States at the mercy of other countries,” White said. “Pennsylvania could and should be a leader in the production and export of clean energy sources, like liquified natural gas. We have an abundance under the ground that can provide the United States with energy freedom, and we have a port right here in Philadelphia that can be used to export it.”
White’s legislation would create a taskforce to study what obstacles are currently preventing Philadelphia from becoming a leader in exporting LNG. The taskforce would be charged with creating a report and recommendations to be presented to the General Assembly and the administration. The taskforce would be made up of people representing the General Assembly, natural gas industry, Philadelphia building trades and PhilaPort.
Jim Snell from Steamfitters Local 420 commented that, “The potential LNG project in Chester, Delaware County will greatly benefit hard-working families who work in the building trades like our members of Steamfitters Local 420. Energy jobs drive the economy as well as support local businesses. Our members count on growth in the energy sector for employment and our nation counts on us to help provide the energy to meet the needs of tomorrow.”
White said, “We are less than 50 miles of infrastructure away from Pennsylvania changing the world for the better. An LNG export facility here will help reduce carbon emissions globally, further U.S. energy independence, promote peace for our European allies who would no longer rely on tyrannical governments for their energy supply, create good-paying jobs and make energy cheaper for families and job creators across Pennsylvania.”
Sen. Jim Dillon and Reps. Kevin Boyle and Ed Neilson supported White’s bill. Sen. Tina Tartaglione and Reps. Nancy Guenst, Joe Hohenstein, Jason Dawkins, Jared Solomon and Isabella Fitzgerald voted against it. ••
Dawkins knocks House GOP
State Rep. Jason Dawkins criticized House Republicans for their attempt to impeach District Attorney Larry Krasner. He said it was a waste of money and a political ploy.
“If House Republicans gave a damn about Philly, they would release rainy day funds to rebuild schools, rehab our rec centers and parks, provide additional funding for basic home repair and provide money for rental assistance. They would demand their friends in law enforcement to show up to work. The Philadelphia city controller just released a police audit that shows large numbers within the police force using loopholes to avoid showing up to work, leading to staffing issues which create unsafe conditions throughout the city. If you want to help, start by showing up to work.” ••
State money coming to 5th district
Sen. Jimmy Dillon announced almost $10.1 million for seven projects in the 5th Senatorial District, awarded from Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program funds.
“Northeast Philly is an amazing place to live, work and raise a family. The projects we’re funding are going to make it even better by supporting jobs, creating new educational opportunities, fighting food insecurity and cultivating green community spaces. In the coming months and years, this funding will jumpstart these great projects, benefit our economy and attract people from all over the Delaware Valley.”
The seven projects receiving fundings are $500,000 for construction at the Tacony Boat Launch; $1 million to rehabilitate two buildings as part of arsenal revitalization; $750,000 to Friends of Archbishop Ryan for a lighted public track and field, ADA-compliant restrooms, concession area, stadium seating and an adjacent dog park; $1.25 million to Caring For Friends; $2 million to Holy Family University for an addition to Holy Family Hall; $2 million for the St. Hubert High School Arts and Design Center; and more than $2.5 million for the Sprinkler Fitters Local 692 Training School. ••
Money to rehab building
