Addressed on ATR Thursday and active rebuttal of the fraudulent Stephens on his Facebook page led by Chuck. And I suggest reading Matt Hegarty's piece in DRF where it's brought out that Stephens' bill is designed to bring tax relief strictly to the 211 wealthiest districts in Pennsylvania. He couldn't care less about the schools. A similar attack was floated 2 years ago in PA and was rebuffed.

The disgusting element of this particular attack by Stephens and the complicit media in PA is misidentifying beneficiaries of the program as 'wealthy horse owners'. Let's check with the breeders, vets, farriers, backstretch workers, feed merchants, van drivers, et al, and see how wealthy they all are. According to this creep Stephens, 'wealthy horse owners' not OK for alleged government largess, but wealthy homeowners are.

Rep. Todd Stephens of Montgomery County, said that the intent of the bill was to provide property-tax relief to homeowners in 211 school districts that receive less than 35 percent of their funding from the state. Those districts are typically high-income areas where the tax base is wealthy enough to provide the majority of funding for schools.
