| | LASP's federal funding update | |
House Appropriations Committee cuts LSC funding by 46%, including an over $1 million cut for LASP
Senate Appropriations Committee increases LSC funding by $6 million
| | |
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee included $566 million in funding for the Legal Services Corporation (LSC) on July 17 when they approved the Commerce, Justice, Science and Related Agencies (CJS) 2026 appropriations legislation. This would increase LSC funding by $6 million, or slightly over 1%, from its $560 million appropriation in 2025.
On July 15, the U.S. House of Representatives Appropriations Subcommittee included $300 million in funding for LSC in their proposed CJS FY 2026 appropriations legislation. This represents a 46% cut from LSC’s FY 2025 funding level. The full committee markup of the House appropriations bill has been postponed and is not yet rescheduled.
Both the Senate Appropriations Committee and the House Subcommittee departed from the White House’s proposal to eliminate LSC in their FY 2026 budget proposal to Congress on May 30, which provided $21 million for LSC, to wind down operations.
(Note: See lasp.org/news for more information about the economic impact of civil legal aid in Pennsylvania and across the nation.)

How much funding does LASP currently receive from LSC?
In LSC's fiscal year 2025 (Jan. 1-Dec. 31, 2025), LASP received $2,249,087 for the basic LSC field grant.
LASP also received additional funding from LSC for its Pro Bono Innovation Fund (PBIF) grant and disaster legal aid grant. Both grants ended during LASP's 2024-25 fiscal year (July 1, 2024-June 30, 2025).

Historical perspective: Closer look at LSC funding over time
+ impact of 46% federal funding cut for Pennsylvanians
| | |
The 46% cut passed by the House Appropriations Committee would take LSC back to its 1999 funding level, despite increased need for legal help in the decades since.
In 1999, 45.6 million American households' incomes were eligible for LSC-funded services. Currently, over 52.3 million Americans are eligible for LSC-funded legal assistance.
When adjusted for inflation, a $260 million dollar reduction would represent an over 60% cut to LSC’s funding.
In Pennsylvania, there are seven LSC-funded legal aid programs serving all 67 counties. A 46% funding cut would mean LSC grantees would be able to serve 78,599 fewer people, including 5,504 fewer older adults, 916 fewer veterans, and 5,974 fewer survivors of domestic violence.

| | Letters of support for LSC | | Preserving access to legal aid | | |
Community support for LASP’s work is more important than ever to preserve access to legal aid.
The need for legal aid continues to grow, amidst uncertain times with respect to public funding, particularly at the federal level.
Did you know? Much of the funding LASP receives from county governments is tied to federal dollars. More than 40% of LASP’s total funding comes from federal sources, including the Legal Services Corporation. With any reduction in funding, LASP will no longer have the resources to help some of those in need.
Your generous support can help reduce the uncertainty. Unrestricted donations provide flexibility to address the great need. For example, LASP often exhausts grants to provide services to older adults. Unrestricted funds enable LASP to continue to serve seniors when they do not qualify for help through other funding sources.
Donors are a lifeline for people like Ms. K. Learn how LASP attorneys stopped her foreclosure and helped keep her in her home.
| | Helping 80-year-old Ms. K avoid foreclosure | | |
Ms. K, who is 80 years old, nearly lost her home while caring for her disabled husband. When her second mortgage lender filed for foreclosure, Ms. K reached out to LASP.
A LASP attorney represented her at conciliation conferences, calculated the total of her missed payments, and advocated for a loan reinstatement. The foreclosure was stopped, and today, Ms. K is still in her home, making payments on time.
LASP attorneys stopped the foreclosure and helped her keep her home.

| | County expungement & sealing practice | | |
HARRISBURG - At the Pennsylvania Legal Aid Network (PLAN) Employment Law Group meeting June 12, legal aid attorneys presented a session to 40+ people from across the state on "County expungement and sealing practice."
Presenters (from left): Olivia O'Donnell, Staff Attorney at Neighborhood Legal Services, Sharon Dietrich, Litigation Director at Community Legal Services of Philadelphia; Erica Briant, Director of Community Engagement & Training at Legal Aid of Southeastern PA (LASP); and Brian Gorman, Executive Director at Summit Legal Aid.
Expungement and sealing practices vary significantly between PA counties on issues such as District Attorney consent and the scheduling of hearings, which impacts clients’ outcomes. The panel examined some variations in PA and successful efforts to address procedural problems. The session also offered the opportunity to brainstorm other ways to improve county processes.
LASP's administrative advocacy was highlighted as a model for developing a streamlined process to expunge and seal records, which allows LASP to help more clients and have a greater impact.
Data on "petitions granted by county" from November 2016 - December 2024 show that in its service area of Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties, LASP has filed petition-based limited access cases in numbers that add up to nearly a quarter of the entire state's total.
"That is all due to the hard work, diligent advocacy and determination of LASP staff," Erica noted. "Not only are we filing significant numbers of these petitions, we also taught the bench and bar how to handle them to ensure compliance with an ever-changing set of statutes and rules."
The daylong meeting, held in Harrisburg, also included presentations on Unemployment Compensation Service Centers, an update on the the Unemployment Compensation appeals system, a Clean Slate update, and strategies to help clients get work if they have been denied jobs due to illegal discrimination.

| | Unemployment Compensation | | Navigating Unemployment Compensation After Job Loss: Follow-up from webinar series supporting the Crozer Community | | |
by Kristen Iles, LASP Communications Intern
& Arcadia University student
Legal Aid of Southeastern PA (LASP), Philadelphia Legal Assistance (PLA), and the Pennsylvania Legal Aid Network (PLAN) collaborated on a two-part webinar series to assist individuals impacted by the closures of Crozer Health in Delaware County, with navigating unemployment compensation (UC) applications.
The sessions acknowledged of challenges facing the community in the wake of Crozer’s shutdown. The speakers emphasized their commitment to helping individuals understand their rights and responsibilities within the unemployment system.
Presenters were Julia Simon-Mishel, PLA Supervising Attorney of the Unemployment Compensation Unit, and Lee Scoratow, LASP Staff Attorney based in Chester City. Erica Briant, LASP Director of Community Engagement & Training, moderated the discussion. PLAN hosted both webinars, held May 1 and June 5, 2025.
Part 1 | May 1, 2025
Pennsylvania unemployment benefits provide up to 26 weeks of income replacement, with payments starting from the date of the initial application, underscoring the importance of filing promptly. The webinar covered the process of submitting weekly claims; available language support, including interpreters and Spanish-language options; and the main eligibility criteria: financial eligibility, job separation, and being able and available for work.
Julia detailed financial eligibility requirements, advising claimants to carefully review their wage records and appeal if necessary. Lee discussed weekly eligibility criteria, emphasizing the need to be physically able to work and actively searching for employment. He also highlighted the requirement to register with PA CareerLink within 30 days to maintain benefits and the importance of accurately reporting earnings.
| | |
The appeal process was thoroughly explained by Lee, including the 21-day deadline to file appeals (with some allowance for late appeals for valid reasons) and the multi-step process starting with a hearing before an unemployment compensation referee, followed by reviews from the Unemployment Compensation Board of Review and potentially Commonwealth Court. He noted that most hearings are in person, though telephone hearings are available with prior evidence submission.
Julia stressed the importance of creating an online unemployment compensation account at benefits.uc.pa.gov. Accounts require multi-factor authentication and identity verification via ID.me, to manage claims, communications, and payments efficiently. She recommended choosing email notifications for more reliable communication and shared resources such as the website UCHelp.org and the UC resources page on the Pennsylvania Dept. of Labor and Industry’s website.
Finally, Lee noted that some PA CareerLink offices offer appointments, including interpreter services, and advised claimants to request backdating of claims if appointment delays occur. If claims are denied, he suggested contacting Legal Aid of Southeastern PA. Local legislators also can assist with claim issues.
