I do not under stand how Pa can charge a surcharge of $700.00 when the state sells the liquor. The Veterans and Volunteers both have protected our land and homes and now you want to add insult to injury.

As a non-profit, veterans organization we cannot afford this surcharge fee. It is just another tax and as a non-profit we are tax exempt.

Please pass HB 1901. Paying for the deficit with the money the hard working Volunteers at the VSO’s and Fire Companies put forth in their respective communities is just WRONG !!!

Please support HB 1901 on behalf of volunteer organizations like the American Legion and VFW along with volunteer fire department that need every penny they raise to do service in their communities! We thank you for your support.

The $700.00 surcharge comes out of the money we provide to Veterans. You should be ashamed.

At a time when Our Veteran Service Organizations need support, our state treats them like a commercial cash cows instead of promoting their ability to serve veterans and the community. It is remarkable that they seem to forget the remarkable programs fostered by the Veteran Service Organizations. Is the state so strapped that the non-profits must be penalized?

This surcharge lessens the ability to serve veterans and the community.

ALL VSOs are currently struggling just to stay open and attract new members in the face of a declining military population. The $700.00 surcharge only serves to INCREASE the level of this struggle.
