Our retired police officers and firefighters are now one step closer to receiving financial relief as my bill (HB 1379) to provide them with a pension increase has passed the PA House. These public servants have not received a cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) in 22 years, just like the many retired teachers and state workers for whom my bill also would provide relief. I am now calling on the PA Senate to take action and help our retired public servants keep up with rising costs. Click here to read more. Read more
“These grants are an important step toward creating modern classrooms where students can focus on learning and teachers can focus on teaching,” said Malagari. “By investing in energy-efficient upgrades, we enhance the daily experience in our schools and ensure that our facilities are built for long-term sustainability. I’m proud to see these funds making a real difference in our local schools.” Read more
“Passing this bill is a critical first step in doing right by our first responders,” said Malagari, D-Montgomery. “For 22 years, they’ve waited for an adjustment that reflects their sacrifice and the rising cost of living. With this bill, we’re ensuring they receive the support they need and deserve. Now, we’re looking to the Senate to finalize this vital measure.” Read more
“These projects demonstrate our commitment to modernizing and expanding our local services,” said Malagari. “From upgrading electrical systems to creating better community spaces, this funding ensures that our community will benefit from enhanced public safety, reliable infrastructure, and enjoyable recreational facilities. This is how we prepare for the future — by making the necessary investments today.” Read more
"This grant represents a significant step in addressing PFAS contamination and ensuring that our communities have access to safe drinking water,” Malagari said. “I'm proud to support Telford Borough in securing this funding, and I will continue advocating for infrastructure investments that protect the health of our residents."

I had the privilege of joining members of the Pennsylvania State Education Association in the Capitol Rotunda to advocate for a cost-of-living increase for retired education professionals.

"Today marks an important step forward for tenant rights in Pennsylvania. This legislation empowers tenants by giving them the confidence to report hazards without the fear of displacement,” Malagari said. “Too often, renters face the impossible choice of either staying silent or risking losing their home. H.B. 1567 eliminates that choice, allowing tenants to advocate for safer living conditions while remaining in their homes." Read more
I am proud to announce that another piece of legislation that I sponsored is now law. HB 1567 allows tenants to remain in their homes while repairs are being done as long the local municipal code enforcement officer deems it safe to do so. Under previous law, tenants were required to vacate the premises while property violations were being corrected. This legislation helps spare tenants the stress and inconvenience of finding alternate living arrangements while still encouraging property owners to make necessary repairs. New occupants will still not be allowed to move into a property with a temporary access certificate that is undergoing repairs. Read more

HARRISBURG, July 11 – Legislation to permit electronic receipts for light fuel oil deliveries passed the state Senate today, said the bill’s sponsor, state Rep. Steve Malagari, D-Montgomery. "Adopting electronic fuel oil delivery receipts is fundamentally about enhancing efficiency and reducing costs, benefiting both consumers and businesses," Malagari said. "This legislation simplifies the billing process and promotes environmentally friendly practices, positioning Pennsylvania as a trailblazer in sustainable modernization." The need for the legislation was brought to Malagari's attention by a local business. It seeks to align Pennsylvania's regulations with electronic billing practices prevalent in other utilities. "Moyer & Son is very grateful for the hard work of Representative Malagari in helping to author and pass commonsense legislation in the House,” a Moyer & Son spokesperson said. “The efficiency and accuracy that electronic billing will bring to our fuel oil customers are welcome improvements to our delivery process." In contrast to traditional printed receipts, the legislation offers consumers and distributors the option of electronic receipts, providing greater convenience, accuracy and reduced administrative burden. The bill maintains consumer choice by ensuring that printed receipts remain available at no extra cost, while electronic Read more
