This week we go to the local letters to the Editor page to present an opinion on the upcoming race for State Representative in the 121st Legislative District. Charles Urban, the long time head of the Luzerne County Tax Payer’s Association penned the letter in support of Sue Henry.
SUPPORT HENRY FOR STATE REPRESENTATIVE
Property owners of the 121st district, do you want to eliminate you school property taxes? You can by voting in the Nov. 6 general election.
There are two candidate running for state representative: incumbent Eddie Day Pashinski and challenger Sue Henry, a former WILK radio talk host.
Henry is eager to accept the challenge and campaign on the property tax reform as a strong supporter of HB 76.
Pashinski is a rabid opponent of HB/SB 76. His reason? He says Independence Fiscal Office and the Department of Revenue both stated officially in a full report it does not work.
The Independence Fiscal Office never said such a thing. They reported the numbers without comment, and Pashinski is twisting them.
Pashinski was the head of the teachers union in the Luzerne County district where he was employed. He is collecting approximately $4,420 a month and is working on his second guarantee pension as a state representative, collecting more than $80,00 in salary and social security benefits. The PSEA state teachers union is his largest contributor to his campaign. The PSEA is the most active opponent of school property taxes.
The Pennsylvania Collation of Taxpayers Association has endorsed Henry. Henry is firmly committed to HB 76.
As president of Luzerne County Property Owners and a member of 86 PTCC groups, I am asking you to vote for Henry.
You must do all you can to remove Pashinski from office. Let Sue Henry help save our homes.
Charles Urban
President, Luzerne County Property Owners

Hypocrisy thy name is LuLac
It appears to me that Yonki is doing what people have been asking for. Do coverage on both parties. We know he dialikes Trump (2/3 of the country and 90% of the world does) but what's the problem here 9:41am?
You read it. And again like a kamikaze, you drop a 5 word shit bomb with no reason behind it.
Oh well run along kid!
Sue Henry certainly is being portrayed as a one-
issue candidate. Assuming that I want more than for my income taxes to rise (which surely will happen if property taxes are abolished), what else does she offer?
Urban seems to suggest that putting Henry in the state legislature will guarantee abolition of the property tax.
Un-huh. All it would guarantee is one more vote for unconstitutional partisan gerrymandering when it comes time to redraw the congressional and legislative districts.
Wilkes barre school district is alrady 32 million in debt, and they are going in debt more 150 more for a new school, we will continue to pay school property for years until that debt is paid off.
