June 30, 2025 - Harrisburg, PA
Governor Josh Shapiro and Secretary of Revenue Pat Browne visited the East Shore YMCA in Dauphin County to announce that rebates on property taxes and rent paid in 2024 as part of the Property Tax/Rent Rebate (PTRR) program will start to be distributed tomorrow, July 1, 2025, as required by law. This initial distribution will include approximately 425,000 rebates totaling $258 million - critical relief that is going to older homeowners, renters, and people with disabilities across Pennsylvania. This follows the work Governor Shapiro and his Administration did last year to deliver 522,434 rebates totaling over $319 million to the Pennsylvanians who submitted a rebate application. This was a major increase from prior years thanks to Governor Shapiro's efforts to secure bipartisan support for a major expansion of the PTRR program. The expansion significantly increased the rebate amount for eligible applicants and raised the program's income limits. Based on the latest data from the past two years, this has already opened the door for approximately 150,000 first-time filers to receive a rebate for the very first time. ist of Speakers:Eric Rothermel, Vice President of Government Relations, Harrisburg Area YMCAGovernor Josh ShapiroSecretary of Revenue Pat BrowneBill Johnston-Walsh, AARP Pennsylvania State DirectorRepresentative Nate Davidson
