February 15, 2021 Dear Governor Wolf

February 15, 2021 Dear Governor Wolf: CompetePA is a coalition comprised of statewide and regional business groups, small- and medium- sized businesses, as well as Fortune 500 companies. The coalition, which represents more than half the Commonwealth’s private sector employers, was formed in 2005 to help create a competitive business tax climate that encourages job growth in Pennsylvania. On behalf of over 160 businesses and organizations across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the CompetePA Coalition writes in opposition to the proposed tax increases to businesses, large and small across Pennsylvania, as laid out in your 2021-22 budget proposal. It is no secret that Pennsylvania has one of the least competitive business tax environments in the country. For 2021, we rank 43rd in the nation in the Tax Foundation’s “Corporate Tax Ranking”. At 9.99 percent, we have the highest non-graduated Corporate Net Income Tax (CNIT) rate in the country. While we appreciate your proposal to lower this rate, tying the rate reduction to combined reporting – a policy that adds complexity, uncertainty, and cost to business – ultimately further negatively impacts Pennsylvania’s competitive standing. While CompetePA has historically focused on just the CNIT rate and its structure, we would be remiss if we also didn’t share our opposition to the proposal to raise the Personal Income Tax (PIT) rate. Our PIT rate is one of the most competitive rates in the country, at 3.07 percent. It’s also the rate paid by many small businesses in our Commonwealth. As regions everywhere look to recover and thrive in a post-pandemic world, now more than ever we need to ensure Pennsylvania is competitively positioned versus the competition.

Legislative UPDATE

November 16, 2020 Legislative UPDATE Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education "State lawmakers return to Harrisburg [this week for] what has become a rarity in recent years with a post-election session in which substantive legislation is expected to be considered," reports PennLive. According to Capitolwire, their work will primarily focus on trying "to figure out a way to finish off the state’s 2020-21 state budget (as well as appropriate $1.3 billion in federal CARES Act funding), of which there are seven months remaining to be addressed." Federal CARES Act funding must be spent by December 31st on COVID-19 related needs. The $25.8 billion interim budget funded education for kindergarten to 12th grade at the same level as 2019-20, and it also fully funded colleges and universities, including Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education. The current two-year legislative comes to an end on November 30th. If a balanced buget is not settled upon by then, providers, grantees and others would be impacted. Senate Session & Committee Activity Senate Session Days | Watch Session Live | Senate Calendars | Senate Committee Meeting Schedule The Senate stands in recess until the call of the President Pro Tempore, but is presently scheduled to convene today and again Tuesday through Thursday. In committee activity, Senate Appropriations is scheduled to consider these bills of interest: • SB 1350 (Browne): A supplement to and act to provide from the General Fund for the expenses of the Executive, Legislative & Judicial Departments, the public debt & the public schools for the fiscal year July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2021.

Attention Local Officials: Please reach out to your Senators and members of the Senate Transportation Committee where Senate Bill 607 awaits a vote - and express your support! Senate Bill 607 (PN 675) authorizes the use of radar and LIDAR for all municipal police. This proposal is supported by the Radar Coalition, which includes The League and PSATC. Please consider adopting a resolution supporting local use of radar in your municipality. We are providing a sample resolution on our website. If you have adopted a resolution in past sessions, it should be updated. In addition, we are providing a sample press release to use after adopting a resolution to let your residents know that municipal radar is a priority in your community and to encourage them to advocate for the passage of Senate Bill 607, too. Three other proposals have been introduced this session, which include provisions that authorize the restricted use of radar, they are: House Bill 74 (PN 78), introduced by Representative Greg Rothman; House Bill 352 (PN 328), introduced by Representative Bill Kortz; and House Bill 1275 (PN 1483), introduced by Representative Kurt Masser. The League and PSATC currently do not support these proposals as drafted due to their restrictive nature. All three of these bills are currently before the House Transportation Committee.

S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local

February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.
