HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania --
Shapiro's budget proposal comes as Pennsylvania keeps taking in robust tax collections, leaving it with $11 billion in reserve cash, even as it faces demands for more money for schools and social services and what Shapiro calls a workforce crisis.
That pledge comes as Pennsylvania competes for a federally funded hydrogen hub and tries to attract the kind of multibillion-dollar battery plants and microchip factories that other states are landing. Whatever Shapiro proposes will require approval from the Democratic-controlled House and the Republican-controlled Senate.In addition to boosting school funding, Shapiro has said he wants to put a mental health counselor in every school building and pump more money into subsidies for child care, local civic improvement projects, university research on cutting-edge manufacturing, and STEM programs in schools.

Norfolk Southern to pay millions to fire companies, businesses for derailment costs: Gov. ShapiroAmong the costs are millions to reimburse fire companies for equipment that was contaminated or damaged in the response, according to the governor's office. Wondering about gardens and farms safely raising crops and veg. People want to know if they can use their own land safely. Is anyone addressing this concern? Some properties show ash from the burn throughout the lawns. Is this safe? Ground water? What are they going to pay to the citizens that they endangered? Also, I notice that this money is going to state and other agencies and businesses not directly to the individual property owners. They were given $1000? What is their land cannot be used or they completely lose their business because people are afraid to buy or grow?
