Rep. Jerry Knowles’ district office is moving on Aug. 1, 2018. The new address will be 202 E. Broad St., Tamaqua, the former AAA office. The new office location will be open on Aug. 1.

Rep. Jerry Knowles attended a House Majority Policy Committee Hearing on July 17 in Brandywine focused on pipeline development, and the potential for it to create hundreds of jobs and give more Pennsylvanians access to affordable, home-grown natural gas. Testifiers outlined the rules and regulations currently in place to ensure safe development, addressed environmental protection measures and emergency response plans, explained pipeline construction standards and more.

At a press conference in late June, Rep. Jerry Knowles stood again in support of House Bill 153, legislation he is sponsoring to allow the people of Pennsylvania to decide whether to reduce the size of one of the nation’s largest full-time state legislatures. House Bill 153 would amend the Pennsylvania Constitution to reduce the number of seats in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives from 203 to 151.
