WASHINGTON, D.C. — Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) announced $193,486,298 in funds to help lower heating costs for Pennsylvania families this winter. The funding comes from the Low Income Home Energy Assistant Program (LIHEAP) and will help low-income households in Pennsylvania with their home heating bills in the winter and cooling bills in the summer.   

Additionally, LIHEAP can be used to weatherize homes to make them more energy efficient, and during disasters and extreme weather to mitigate energy emergencies.
