PA State Rep. Elizabeth Fiedler

School solar in action! I loved visiting Manheim School District recently to attend the ribbon-cutting on their brand new solar array! This installation of over 1200 panels brought jobs to the area, generates clean energy, and will help the district cover their rising costs - without raising taxes.

As utility bills continue to rise month after month, customers deserve to know how those decisions were made. I'm proud that HB2584, a companion to Senator Michele Brooks' SB1254, passed the House this week with overwhelming bipartisan support. www.pahouse.com/Fiedler/InTh...

I’m excited to get to work with the new, Kids and Families Caucus. As a parent and a lawmaker, I look forward to helping address transportation challenges, supporting parents experiencing postpartum depression, and strengthening the resources families need to thrive in my district and across PA.

No more loud ads! Families deserve peace of mind and control - in their home, and on their home devices. I'm happy my Loud Ads bill with Rep. Shaffer passed the House this week with overwhelming bipartisan support. www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

Yesterday, the House passed one of the biggest environmental and affordability wins in Pa history! Millions that were originally allocated for natural gas will be re-invested in renewables + a data center usage fee will create cash payments for regular ratepayers. www.pahouse.com/Fiedler/InTh...

Today, House Democrats gathered in the Capitol to renew our commitment to the Energy Affordability package we first shared in April. These bills would protect consumers by reining in corporate greed, improving grid efficiency, and regulating data centers. www.pahouse.com/Fiedler/InTh...

Last month, Pennsylvania got a dire warning about our energy future, with the PUC expecting drastic grid failures by 2030. I called a hearing in the House Energy Committee this week to better understand this report and hear recommendations from industry experts. www.fox43.com/article/news...

When working people pay the same taxes as billionaires, that's not "fairness" - it's elites exploiting a broken system. This week, @repcephas.com and I introduced a bill to repeal the most outdated and regressive tax policy in PA: the uniformity clause. local21news.com/news/local/p...

It doesn’t make sense that a worker making $7.25/hour pays the same taxes as someone making seven figures. But this is reality in Pa., where we have the 4th most regressive tax structure in the US. This is in part because of the outdated uniformity clause, one our biggest roadblocks to tax reform.

People’s utility bills have become totally unaffordable. Yet Pennsylvania’s utility monopolies aren’t struggling: they earn among the highest profit margins for their shareholders of any industry. Pennsylvanians should pay for safe and reliable service, not shareholder profits.

If a data center requires Pennsylvania's energy generation, transmissions, distribution or other grid infrastructure, the costs should be borne by the companies creating that demand - not by the Pennsylvania households and businesses that are already paying too high a price.

New technology isn't inherently bad, but we need guardrails on AI and data centers that come from democratically elected leaders - not billionaire CEOs.

Congrats to Allegheny Valley School District on today's news of their Solar for Schools award! The project is estimated to save the district over $80,000 a year - those energy savings can be used for teacher salaries, classroom materials, facility upgrades, and more. cumberlink.com/news/communi...

I was proud to take part in the historic #PAHouse session at Congress Hall. Taking time to reflect on the complicated founding of American democracy, I'm filled with renewed optimism for the opportunity to serve my South Philly district to make this a government truly of, by and for the people.

The PUC issued a dire warning this morning about the outlook of PA's energy future. As Chair of the House Energy Committee, I propose a new vision: more renewables, a modernized grid, investment in battery storage, efficiency measures to manage demand, and oversight on Big Tech's data centers.

Yesterday, the PA House of Reps gathered in Philadelphia for a special session at Congress Hall to honor America's 250th - of course I wouldn't pass up a chance to use SEPTA to get there!

Extreme heat is a workplace safety issue. You have the right to speak up about unsafe conditions and to act together with your coworkers to demand a safer workplace.

Big Tech like to play by their own rules, hurting their customers and clients in the process. But with bold policy like my Digital Ads Tax bill and increased oversight over tech's unchecked power, we can balance the playing field in PA. penncapital-star.com/2026/08/31/r...

I will never support a union-busting company, especially not when its unionized workers have been fighting for a contract for YEARS! No Starbucks for me, at my events, or in my office until Starbucks workers get the contract they deserve. #BoycottStarbucks

A former landfill in Voorhees Township will soon be covered by 13 acres of solar panels designed to generate renewable energy while lowering utility costs for the community.

More good Solar for Schools news is rolling in! The latest awardees of Solar for Schools grants span from Southeast to Central PA. Applications for year two of funding are still being accepted - schools can head to pahouse.com/fiedler/solar4schools to learn more. dced.pa.gov/newsroom/sha...

Your neighborhood. Your representative. Your resources. South Philly: see how my office can help you and your family. Call, visit, or email us: pahouse.com/fiedler 2400 S. 9th St., Philadelphia PA 19148 (215) 271-9190 RepFiedler@pahouse.net

Grants can now cover up to 75% of the total cost of a solar project, up from the previous maximum of 50%. Districts can also enter power-purchase agreements with solar developers to more easily arrange for panel installation and secure lower, fixed energy rates. From @emilyscolnick.bsky.social

The School Facilities Inventory is now law with the passage of the PA state budget! My colleagues @reppowell.com, @reptarikkhan.bsky.social, Rep. Probst and I introduced this legislation as a way to more efficiently address the crisis of unsafe school buildings in PA. www.pahouse.com/Fiedler/InTh...

HUGE climate win in PA! We approved another year of funding for Solar for Schools, the grant program that offsets the costs for schools to generate their own clean energy. It's a win for education, workers, taxpayers, and the planet. Learn more at pahouse.com/fiedler/solar4schools

“At a time when people are trying to save every dollar they can, this is absolutely legislation we should be able to pass into law." - @repfiedler.bsky.social www.pahouse.com/InTheNews/Ne...

We all deserve reliable & affordable energy. My bill supports advanced transmission technologies (ATTs) to modernize our electric grid, reduce costs, and help lower your utility bills. I spoke this week in the Capitol about the importance of getting HB2223 over the line. youtu.be/RqADYGf8yLc

As their strike deadline approaches, I’m proud to stand with the members of IBEW Local 614 in their call for a fair contract and safe working conditions.

I was happy to be joined by my colleague Rep. Shaffer and energy advocates today to discuss the importance of advanced transmission technologies (ATTs). My ATT bill HB2223 passed the House UNANIMOUSLY in May! We call on the Senate to take up this common sense legislation!

Trump cuts to clean energy credits threaten planned renewable projects across Pa. https://www.spotlightpa.org/news/2026/06/clean-energy-inflation-reduction-act-big-beautiful-bill-trump-renewables-environment/

We all deserve a safe home, yet too many Americans can't afford crucial home repairs - a growing issue as we watch the destructive impacts of climate change. I was proud to vote for Whole-Home Repairs in '22, and excited see this bipartisan program now help countless Americans nationwide.

Return on Equity HB2224 passed the House today with a unanimous vote! This bill I cosponsored with Rep. Burgos would ensure that customers pay no more than what is necessary for their energy bills.
