RENDELL’S HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN HAS A BILL NUMBER House Bill 700 is the bill number assigned to Governor Rendell’s massive health reform proposal even though the text is not yet available from the Electronic Bill Room (www.legis.state.pa.us). Chairman Rep. Tony DeLuca (D-Allegheny) has already scheduled hearings for March 26 and 27 to begin committee deliberations on the plan. Having one large bill appears to be a change from the originally announced Administration presentation that there would be 47 separate parts to the reforms. (NOTE: Those interested in testifying or in submitting written comments for the record should contact Insurance Committee executive director Rick Speese at 717/787-4437 [email protected]. as soon as possible.) Future hearings are tentatively set for April 2 and 3 in Delaware County and on April 11 and 12 in Wilkes Barre. -

DOLLARS and SENSE Realistic Ways Policymakers Can Help Pennsylvania’S Working Families
DOLLARS AND SENSE Realistic ways policymakers can help Pennsylvania’s working families Prepared by the Governor’s Task Force for Working Families January 2005 Co-Chairs Representative Dwight Evans Secretary of Banking Bill Schenck January 2005 The Honorable Edward G. Rendell Governor Commonwealth of Pennsylvania 225 Main Capitol Building Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17120 Dear Governor Rendell, We eagerly accepted your appointment to co-chair a Task Force that would explore strategies to help the Commonwealth’s working families. Over the past several months many people have joined with us in this important work—including a number of working families who shared their thoughts at the two dozen open discussions we convened throughout the summer. More than 60 Task Force members—representing state government, financial entities, educational institutions, community groups, employers, and others—invested their time and lent their expertise to develop the recommendations that we respectfully submit to you today. We were tough task masters, and they had a tough job. We were not interested in duplicating progress already underway in the Commonwealth’s current economic stimulus, workforce development, health care reform, manufacturing modernization, or mortgage foreclosure prevention efforts. Nor were we interested in academic solutions to real-world problems or costly overhauls that could not receive serious consideration in the current fiscal environment. Task Force members took their charge seriously, and the commitment, creativity and passion they brought to this process is evident in its impressive results. This report provides an achievable, cost-effective blueprint that can make a real difference in the lives of Pennsylvania’s hard working families. -
Final Washington Financial Literacy Work Group Report
December 1, 2008 Dear Governor Gregoire, In the following pages you will find an overview of the work completed by the Washington Financial Literacy Work Group, supporting documentation for the group’s nine recommendations to improve financial education for all Washington State residents and several reference documents in the attached appendices. Acting on the requirements cited in SB 6272 (Chapter 3, Laws of 2008), the group was tasked to: 1. Identify current state funded efforts to support financial literacy; 2. Assess whether there are opportunities to create a centralized location of information regarding these existing state efforts; and 3. Identify whether there are opportunities for expanding partnerships with other community entities also providing financial literacy services. Members of this group answered your directive, completed the tasks and provided additional research and data in an effort to present you with the most comprehensive report possible on financial education in Washington State. The Work Group was careful to ensure their nine recommendations address the needs of all Washington residents and recognize existing works to improve financial education for Washington’s K-12 students by groups such as the Financial Literacy Public Private Partnership and Jump$tart Washington Coalition. A diverse group of more than 30 financial education advocates in Washington State gathered to address the importance of financial education – as it pertains to individuals as well as our state and national economy. The full Work Group met seven times — from April through October. Additionally, subcommittees formed and met on numerous occasions. Meeting notes and audio files are available on the Work Group Web site: www.dfi.wa.gov/work-group. -
