Former US Congressman Joe Hoeffel unveiled his blog last week, but another local politician has had his own blog for a little longer. Above Average Jane found PA Congressman Mark Cohen's blog Comment on Pennsylvania Legislation:
This provides short descriptions of legislative bills that are active before the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. The public is encouraged to post comments on these proposals. The bills with the most recent legislative actions (i.e. public hearings, committee votes, etc.) appear first. Many more bills may be found in the monthly Archives. This is presented as a courtesy of Rep. Mark B. Cohen, House Democratic Caucus Chairman.
Both of these blogs give us a look from a different perspective than lots of other political blogs, they're pretty much in the know and in Hoeffel's case, just slightly removed. Both have been added to the 'Politics' set of links on the right hand pane.
Chuck Pennacchio, vying for the Democratic nomination for the US Senate in 2006 has his own blog as well at Pennacchio for Pennsylvania.
