House of Bepr Esentutibes - Co--Onw-Ealth of Pennsylvania Harrisburg House of Bepr esentutibes - Co--onw-ealth of Pennsylvania Harrisburg August 7,2O2O Office of the Governor 508 Main Capitol Building Harrisburg, PA77tzD Governor Wolf: We wish to communicate our frustration with your remarks during a press conference on August 6, as well your subsequent press release, providing a "strong recommendation" that school sports should not continue as planned during the upcoming school year. On July 3L,2O2O, to answer rumors that your administration will close Pennsylvania schools for the upcoming school year, you wrote on the social media website Twitter that "school governing boards and administratorswilldetermine if school buildings reopen and if classes resume in person, remotely, ora combination of the two." We agreed with this response because it honored the very fabric of which our Commonwealth operates, that these decisions are best made locally-by the men and women who were elected to serve on Pennsylvania's school boards. They carry with them the sentiments of their constituents into every decision they make and should not have their authority usurped. But your newest "recommendation" goes against that very premise and is a slap in the face to those school board members, their staffs, and more importantly, the thousands of Pennsylvania athletes and their families who have been preparing for the fall sports season. Furthermore, we are in disbelief that you carelessly disregarded the input of the Pennsylvania lnterscholastic Athletic Association, who has governed Pennsylvania sports for more than 100 years and have established guidelines to allow sports to resume. Furthermore, it must also be noted that two Right-to-Know Law requests were submitted by Representative Seth Grove seeking data that has driven this decision. Moving forward with any further restrictions or mitigation efforts, in any manner whatsoever, until this information is provided is simply negligent and reckless. Sports are important for students, families and communities. After months of cooperating with state mandates that they may or may not have agreed with, students are looking forward to some form of normalcy with the return of school sports. Those dreams and plans were single handedly crushed by your unilateral direction. It is with these points in mind that we call on you to do the right thing and rescind your August 6 remarks and treat the men and women who manage Pennsylvania's schools as professionals. Allow them to decide for their individual districts if sports should continue, in what manner and who may watch. We welcome any opportunity to discuss these matters with you further.

  • 2020 Voter Guide State Legislative Races Pittsburgh Diocese
    2020 Voter Guide State Legislative Races Pittsburgh Diocese The Pennsylvania Catholic Conference is the public affairs arm of the Catholic bishops across the state. We monitor hundreds of pieces of legislation throughout the year and determine whether or not to take a position for or against what we feel are the ones most important to our faith. This Voter Guide includes a cross-section of seven bills spanning seven categories to show how incumbent legislators have voted. We have also invited their challengers in the general election to indicate how they would vote on these same bills. This guide is meant to be an educational piece, which we hope will provide you with information so that you can make your own decisions. A listing of the bills used for this comparison and their descriptions are below. The overall scores given to each candidate indicate the percentage of times they vote in support of PCC’s position and the percentage of times they voted in opposition to PCC’s position. Please understand we continue to work with legislators from all parties on various pieces of legislation. Unlike these, not all of that legislation has been sent to the Governor. The Conference neither supports nor opposes any candidate or political party. The Catholic Conference aims to educate and inform Catholics about a wide range of issues. List of issues included for comparison: Pro Life: House Bill 321 was a prolife measure which would prohibit the aborting of a fetus solely on the basis of a possible diagnosis of Down syndrome. The PCC strongly supported this bill and worked with prolife lawmakers to gain its passage.

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.

  • Resolution 1032 Action
    Resolution to Create ‘election integrity” Committee Threatens Integrity of our State Election On Thursday, October 1st, a resolution to create an ‘election integrity’ committee was passed out of committee to be voted on soon by the full PA House of Representatives. It would not need the Senate’s approval or Governor Wolf’s signature. The plan would create a committee of 3 Republican lawmakers and 2 Democrats, to investigate and review the election. Such a committee is unprecedented, and its powers are broad and vague. Representative Malcolm Kenyatta (D) vehemently opposed the resolution, which was featured on Rachel Maddow’s show on October 1st. You can listen to the full exchange here. Rep. Kenyatta says, “They [the committee] would all be selected by the Republican Speaker which is completely out of the norm…This is the concern: We cannot have people who are up for election, investigate their own election.” An attempt was made to rush the Resolution through for a vote by the full PA House of Representatives but was delayed by a member of the House testing positive case for Covid. The vote has now been rescheduled for Monday, October 19th. This is our time to act! ACTION: With all the concerns about the coming election and claims of fraud, we need to be sure that our PA voters are the ones to determine the “electors” who will cast the PA Electoral College votes. WE MUST ACT NOW! URGE THE LEADERSHIP OF THE HOUSE REPRESENTATIVES TO VOTE NO ON HR 1032. PLEASE CALL ALL OFFICES AS WELL AS YOUR OWN REPRESENTATIVE! CONTACT: State Leadership Brian Cutler (R), PA House Speaker Garth Everett (R), PA House State Govt Com Chair District Office (717) 284-1965 Muncy (570) 546-2084 Capitol Office (717) 783-6424 Capitol (717) 787-5270 Kerry A.
