Please be vigilant and check your mail carefully. There are scam letters circulating that claim to be from the US Treasury Department telling recipients they have unclaimed property/funds. This is concerning because my office and the PA Treasury Department recently sent letters like these to people or businesses with unclaimed funds. Letters from Bucks County Controller (signed by me, Pamela Van Blunk) or PA Treasury Department (signed by Stacy Garrity) are legitimate. We will never ask for payment to release funds. If you receive a letter and are unsure if it is legitimate, call my office (215-348-6435) to verify its validity before taking any action.

What’s happened to advocacy with civility? So unprofessional

Green was censured, but only 9 Democrats joined in the motion. The Democrats then refused to clear the well and disrupted Speaker Johnson's efforts to complete the censure process. The sound you heard was the Democratic party hitting rock bottom in this disgraceful display...

Congratulations to the entire staff in the Bucks County Controller’s Office! I’m so proud of this team. We were recently awarded the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for the annual comprehensive financial report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The Certificate of Achievement is awarded by the Government Finance Officers Association and is the highest form of recognition in governmental accounting and financial reporting. My sincere appreciation goes out to the entire staff of the Controller’s Office - the preparation of the annual report on a timely basis was made possible by their dedicated service!

Eulogy by Yarden Bibas, husband of Shiri and father of Ariel and Kfir: "Mi Amor" I remember the first time I said "mi amor" to you. It was at the very beginning of our relationship. You told me to only call you that if I was certain I loved you, not to say it carelessly. I

When people do not pay their fair share of taxes, then the rest of us end up paying more than our fair share.

Ask yourself a simple question. Should the city of Philadelphia's highest ranking law enforcement officer pay his real estate taxes? Larry Krasner hasn't. For the past 7 years.

Fraud, waste and abuse of County funds is something paid for by ALL Bucks County Taxpayers. You can help me fight fraud, waste and abuse by reporting any of the following: * Suspected theft or misuse of County property or cash * False reporting of hours worked * Submission of illegitimate vendor invoices such as overcharging for services * Misrepresentation of expense reimbursements * Violations of the County’s purchasing policy * Fraudulent reporting of medical, disability, or worker’s compensation claims As your County Controller and the independent fiscal watchdog of the County’s funds, I’m committed to transparency and accountability in every aspect of our government.

George Washington's Birthday is celebrated as a federal holiday on the third Monday in February. It is one of eleven permanent holidays established by Congress. Interesting fact: contrary to popular belief, neither Congress nor the President has ever stipulated that the name of the holiday observed as Washington's Birthday be changed to "President's Day." Whatever you choose to call it, and however you choose to observe Washington’s Birthday, I hope you have a great day.
