Kosierowski advocated for grants awarded from the Statewide Local Share Account, which is funded from the PA Race Horse Development Gaming Act. “This state funding will help our district address many critical needs from feeding the food-insecure to making our sidewalks safer to renovating important community infrastructures, including roof repair and stormwater maintenance,” Kosierowski said. “I am honored that I was able to bring this money home to support these worthy projects and the people who will benefit from them. I am grateful to my fellow legislators who also advocated for these grants, especially state Sen.
