HARRISBURG – Rep. Mike Cabell (R-Luzerne) was officially sworn into office, along with 199 other members of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, during a ceremony at the state Capitol on Tuesday. Cabell is beginning his initial, two-year term serving the 117th Legislative District, which includes parts of Luzerne County.

“I am honored to have been given the great responsibility of serving the good people of the 117th District,” said Cabell. “It is indeed a privilege to be their voice in Harrisburg, and I pledge to work hard to represent their interests.”

Cabell’s priorities during the 2023-24 legislative session include eliminating the so-called “Rain Tax,” repairing roads and bridges, protecting all life, preserving green spaces, supporting the agricultural community and assisting local veterans.

Cabell plans to open district offices soon in Conyngham and Dallas to assist district residents.

“The members of my staff have years of experience in other district offices, and I am fortunate they have agreed to work with me,” Cabell added. “We look forward to helping anyone who has a state-related matter they may encounter. Residents are encouraged to stop by or give us a call once the offices are open for business.”

Prior to his election to the House of Representatives, Cabell managed a behavioral health care company he founded. He and his wife, Chelsea, reside in Drums and are the parents of two young boys.
