Summary

The measure amends Pennsylvania's Local Tax Enabling Act to increase the ceiling on local services taxes from $52 to $156. It also lets any political subdivision that levies a local services tax exempt individuals whose earned income and net profits are under $12,000, or under $15,600, depending on the tax rate. The changes affect cities, boroughs, townships and other local units that collect the tax and the residents who pay it.
