(Beaver County, PA) According to a release today in Harrisburg from the offices of State Representatives Roman Kozak (R-Beaver) and Joshua D. Kail (R-Beaver/Washington), the duo recently introduced a bill in Pennsylvania to end Beaver County’s participation in the Vehicle Emissions Inspection and Maintenance (I/M) program. If passed, this legislation would petition the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to remove Beaver County from this federal requirement even though the current I/M program is federally mandated. Kozak stated: “Today’s engines run cleaner and more efficiently than ever before, and the population of our region is less than when this federal mandate was passed. It makes zero sense that people who live on one side of the road in northern or eastern Beaver County have to pay emissions fees while their neighbors across the street do not have to pay because their property is in Lawerence County or Ohio. It’s a significant unnecessary expense to Beaver County residents, especially those on fixed incomes. Pennsylvania needs to petition the Federal Government to remove Beaver County from this outdated mandate.” Kail also stated: “This program creates a serious financial strain on Pennsylvanians. Between inspection fees and possible repairs to taking time off work, residents become inundated with unnecessary pressures. Removing Beaver County from this outdated process would provide deserved relief to those who find it difficult to make ends meet.”

(Pittsburgh, PA) Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is still pondering his future for the 2026 NFL season, which will be his 22nd season if he plays. It seems like the chances are increasing that Rodgers could play, and that will be a beautiful day in the neighborhood for Steelers fans. Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy spoke last week to KDKA’s Bob Pompeani, who asked McCarthy about Rodgers playing again, and McCarthy said: “That’s the plan.” According to several national outlets including the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Rodgers has told some of his closest friends that he feels refreshed and really appreciated his year with the Steelers. Pelissero stated that the plan is for Rodgers to take a little bit more time with his decision, and it will probably come prior to the start of NFL free agency in the middle of March.

(Palm Beach Gardens, FL) Central Catholic High School alumnus and golfer Neal Shipley made the first hole-in-one ever in the history of TGL, which is a high-tech professional golf league based out of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida that is held indoors at the Sofi Center. Shipley was competing for the Bay Golf Club in their match last night against Los Angeles Golf Club and whacked his golf ball with a wedge into a screen on a 110-yard par 3 and back-spinned it into the hole. Shipley finished as the runner up at the U.S. Amateur Championship in 2023 and earned a spot to compete in the Masters tournament in 2024. Shipley was bounced into the limelight in his debut at that tournament, because he earned its low amateur honor and golfed along Tiger Woods in the final round of the 2024 Masters.
