  Toohil Takes Oath of Office in Pennsylvania House of Representatives
  Rep. Tarah Toohil (R-Luzerne) took the oath of office today as a member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, serving the 116th District. She cited public safety and property tax relief as her top priorities in the 2015-16 legislative session.
  "It's such a great honor to be here and work for the people of my district, to be able to come to Harrisburg and fight for them, fight for their needs," said Toohil. "Locally, I'm going to be working very hard on crime issues, reducing crime. People need to feel safe. People need to be able to walk the streets. Public safety is a huge local issue that I can help with here in Harrisburg by securing more funding for our police."
  "In addition, many people are really hurting because of high property taxes. We have a lot of new Republican members in the House and I think they're going to be supportive of our efforts to finally bring some relief to the taxpayers of Pennsylvania. I'm really looking forward to that this year."
