Where Malone Stands on Affordability
If you live in Elizabethtown, you’re in Pennsylvania’s 36th State Senate District, and the November 3, 2026 general election will decide who represents you in Harrisburg. State Senator James Malone has put affordability at the center of his campaign priorities. He is working to address rising prices on everything from healthcare to groceries and to expand access to affordable housing, and he is running to lower the costs of everyday essentials. He also brought a Senate Democratic Policy Committee hearing on rising costs for seniors to Elizabethtown on June 12, 2026, saying people who worked their whole lives deserve to retire with dignity and without fear of depleting their resources.
What Malone Has Actually Delivered
Malone backed the 2026-27 Pennsylvania budget, which delivered $1 billion in homeowner property tax relief, an average of over $350 per homeowner, and more than $200 million through the Working Pennsylvanians Tax Credit. Those relief figures are statewide, not specific to Lancaster County, but they show what he votes for when budgets come to the floor. He has also backed a budget that continues expanding the Senior Citizens Property Tax and Rent Rebate Program, which matters for older Elizabethtown residents on fixed incomes.
Why Malone Is the Right Choice for Elizabethtown
For an Elizabethtown voter watching every bill, James Malone is the right choice in the 36th District race, because he pairs a concrete affordability agenda on healthcare, groceries, housing, and property taxes with a budget record that actually delivered relief. Register by October 19, 2026, and make a plan to vote for Malone on November 3.
