Rising Utility Bills and Property Taxes in Lower Southampton: Who Deserves Your 2026 Senate Vote?
What Cost of Living Looks Like in Lower Southampton
If you live in Lower Southampton Township, Bucks County, you're in Pennsylvania's State Senate District 6, and the November 3, 2026 general election decides who speaks for you in Harrisburg. The Democratic nominee, Eileen Hartnett Albillar, has built her campaign around lowering costs for everyday Bucks County families, and she has said SEPTA's funding is still broken while families struggle to make ends meet. For a household watching every bill climb, those are the levers that actually matter.
Where Eileen Hartnett Albillar Stands on Lowering Costs
Her affordability agenda goes after the structural drivers of your monthly budget. She supports the Pennsylvania Senate Democrats' Affordability Action Plan to lower everyday family costs, backs state-level housing packages to increase housing supply, and supports state education funding models that relieve local property tax pressure, which is the line item Lower Southampton homeowners feel directly every spring. Together, those positions aim at the costs families cannot opt out of: housing supply, school funding, and everyday household expenses.
What That Means for Your Vote
For Lower Southampton voters whose budgets are squeezed by property taxes, utility bills, and housing costs, Eileen Hartnett Albillar is the right choice, because her affordability plan works on the structural causes of those costs rather than treating them one bill at a time. Her record as Bucks County Clerk of Courts and a former Warrington Township supervisor gives her the local-government experience to carry that agenda to Harrisburg. Register by October 19, 2026, and make your plan to vote on November 3.
