Pennsylvania Treasurer

Campaign website

Bizzarro’s campaign website stated the following:

PROTECT STATE ASSETS AND OUR PENSIONS

The state treasurer chooses how to invest and grow billions of dollars of our money. Keeping our state on a solid financial footing is essential to maintaining a good statewide credit score that allows us to make vital infrastructure investments. New roads, bridges, clean water, schools, and so much more all require capital funding to move Pennsylvania forward.

Reviewing State Contracts: I will implement a state contracting process review to add protections from wage theft and work to increase opportunities for prevailing wages and investment in companies that invest in Pennsylvania.

PROTECT IMPORTANT PROGRAMS

529 College Savings Program:Pennsylvania parents deserve a top performing PA 529 College Savings Program that is easy to access and enroll. PA’s 529 plan is a tax-free savings account to pay for college, trade schools, and apprenticeship programs. My office will expand enrollment efforts to provide more informational outreach to parents in preschools, elementary schools, and doctors’ offices.

PA Able: The PA Able program provides peace of mind to caregivers of people with disabilities. As Treasurer, I will connect with advocates, home care providers, and organizations like the ARC of Pennsylvania to encourage caregivers to make the most of the program.

Low-Interest Loans: I am dedicated to protecting access to low-interest loans for our cities, towns, farmers, and non-profits. The state treasurer’s office manages loan programs that support and expand our number one industry, agriculture, as well as oversight of community development loan funds.

KEEP PENNSYLVANIANS CLOSER TO THEIR MONEY

Reuniting Over $4 billion in lost money with Pennsylvanians: My office will implement an automatic system for returning money that eliminates some bureaucratic barriers and reduces unneeded delays. Additionally, I am dedicated to expanding veteran services. I will reunite more military decorations with veterans or their next of kin, and eliminate hurdles for servicemembers who change states and leave assets behind.

Increase Financial Literacy: I want to be a state treasurer who helps Pennsylvanians learn more about their own money and how to protect and grow it. I will provide new educational materials and opportunities to increase financial literacy for all those who wish to learn, from our student-aged Pennsylvanians to our retirees. A better, closer relationship with our finances begins with better understanding about how to utilize it, protect it, and even invest it.

UNCLAIMED PROPERTY

Under Treasurer Stacy Garrity’s stewardship, Pennsylvania has failed to make meaningful progress in returning billions of dollars in unclaimed property that belongs to Pennsylvanian individuals, local governments, non-profits, and businesses.

Pennsylvania’s current approach is unimaginative and lacks aggressive leadership. It is slowed by half- measures and bureaucratic impediments that aren’t working. I will change it.[11]
