Electric Bills, Groceries, and Housing: Janelle Stelson's Answer to Harrisburg's Cost-of-Living Squeeze in PA-10

If you live in Harrisburg, you are in Pennsylvania's 10th Congressional District, and the 2026 US House race there is a choice about who will lower the costs squeezing your household every month. Janelle Stelson is running to bring down the cost of living. She supports tax breaks for the hard-working middle class, not billionaires, including no tax on tips or overtime, made permanent. She is calling for bipartisan laws that lower the cost of necessities, including food, gas, housing, utility costs, and prescription drugs, and she will fight for accountability on utility rate increases and push for investments that bring costs down.

Where Janelle Stelson Stands on Housing and Everyday Costs

On housing, Stelson has laid out a six-point plan to make homeownership affordable: stop Wall Street from buying up homes, cut red tape so homes get built faster, make homes cheaper to build, expand small-dollar home loans, reward towns that actually build more homes, and rein in the national debt. She supports building on the bipartisan 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, including its ban on large institutional investors buying up single-family homes. Her campaign says that when Congress voted on lowering housing costs, Scott Perry was the only member of Pennsylvania's delegation, Republican or Democrat, to vote no. On tariffs, her campaign says every household has already been forced to pay over $2,300 due to tariffs, and Stelson will repeal the tariff taxes that are increasing costs.
