Subject: | Legislation Allowing Former Mayors to Solemnize Marriages |
In the very near future, I plan to introduce legislation that amends Title 23 (Domestic Relations) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes for the purpose of removing a provision that prohibits former mayors of cities or boroughs within this Commonwealth from solemnizing marriages if they have been defeated for re-election. I believe it is appropriate to allow all former mayors who served honorably, but were defeated for re-election, to have the authority to officiate wedding ceremonies. Please join me in co-sponsoring this legislation. |
Introduced as HB1922
