Democrats Are Poised to Have a 13-Seat Majority in the Pennsylvania House

HARRISBURG — Democratic challengers have declared victory in three competitive Pennsylvania House races that will help determine the size of the party’s majority during the next legislative session. Wins in those races would give the party a 13-seat advantage. In Lancaster County’s 41st House District, Brad Chambers leads Republican state Rep. Brett Miller by 30 votes. That tally includes unchallenged provisional, military, and overseas ballots that were added to the county’s election website Friday afternoon. Seven provisional ballots were challenged and held from that total, according to a county spokesperson, and will be considered during a Board of Elections hearing next Thursday. There are also 14 outstanding overseas and military ballots that have until 5 p.m. on Tuesday to reach the elections office.

From the Office of: Glenn “GT” Thompson

Brews to Barns Act: American brewers generate nearly five million metric tons of spent grain each year, and many of them donate this by-product to local farmers and ranchers. To incentivize this relationship between agriculture and small businesses, I recently introduced bipartisan legislation that would establish an excise tax credit for brewers who donate their spent grain for local agricultural use. The Brews to Barns Act will help reduce input costs for our country’s producers, support small businesses, and strengthen local economies. I’m pleased to lead this legislation to provide relief to small breweries and farms across Pennsylvania.
