  • 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.

  • March 30, 2020 the Honorable Tom Wolf Governor of Pennsylvania 225
    March 30, 2020 The Honorable Tom Wolf Governor of Pennsylvania 225 Main Capitol Harrisburg, PA 17120 RE: U.S. Department of Homeland Security memorandum regarding residential construction Dear Governor Wolf: As we are sure you are aware, on March 28th the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued a new “Advisory Memorandum on Identification of Essential Critical Infrastructure Workers During COVID-19 Response”. We write today asking that you review this memorandum and consider placing all residential construction on your essential business list as the memorandum identifies. This would include your guidance to all “essential businesses” on proper safety protocols, requiring social distancing measures which can protect the workforce and allow operations to continue. During this unprecedented time, we must put public health and safety first. Operational critical infrastructure is vital during the response to the COVID-19 emergency for both public health and safety as well as community well-being. Critical infrastructure industries have a special responsibility in these times to continue operations, and the U.S. DHS has identified construction as one of those industries. In addition to the identified critical need of construction, we also believe this work, operated under the proper safety protocols, is essential now due to its role in continuing economic and societal functions post pandemic. We thank you for your time and attention to this matter and ask for your urgent consideration. Sincerely, Senator Joe Scarnati Senator Jake Corman Senator Patrick Browne President Pro Tempore Majority Leader Chair, Appropriations The Honorable Tom Wolf Page 2 March 30, 2020 Senator John Gordner Senator Bob Mensch Senator Ryan Aument Majority Whip Majority Caucus Chair Majority Caucus Secretary Senator Kim Ward Senator David Argall Majority Caucus Administrator Chair, Majority Policy Committee .

  • Response to Insurrection on January 6Th 2021
    Resolution # 70-19 The Graduate and Professional Student Association (GPSA) The Pennsylvania State University of the 70th Assembly February 3, 2021 Be it decided by the Assembly of Elected Delegates, Response to Insurrection on January 6th, 2021 (Decided: [ Y / N / A ]) 1 Nature of the Situation: 2 In considering our responsibility to grapple with the meaning and effects of the January 3 6th insurrection, it is also important to keep in mind Penn State’s identity as Pennsylvania’s 4 land-grant institution—particularly since debate over the certification of the state’s 5 electors became a key tension leading up to and following the Capitol invasion. Eight 6 Pennsylvania Representatives—including a number who are Penn State alumni (Perry, 7 Joyce, Reschenthaler, and Thompson) and/or represent districts home to PSU 8 campuses—ultimately voted to reject the certification of the presidential electors1, fanning 9 the flames of the insurrection and seeking to disrupt a peaceful transition of power. The 10 State Representative for the 33rd district (home to Penn State’s York campus), Doug 11 Mastriano, helped to organize and partially fund a bus trip for constituents to join the “Stop 12 the Steal” rally2, some of whom have been identified as having breached the Capitol. In 13 recent weeks, news has also emerged that Penn State alum Scott Perry (US House 14 Representative for the 10th District, home to the Penn State Dickinson Law campus) 1 https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/07/us/politics/republicans-against-certification.html 2 https://www.inquirer.com/politics/pennsylvania/spl/doug-mastriano-trump-capitol-attack-resignation- investigation-20210108.html 1 played a significant role in persuading ex-President Trump to contest the results of the 2 2020 election and may be facing calls for removal3.

  • Central Pennsylvania's Northern Tier the Wellsboro District
    Central Pennsylvania's Northern Tier The Wellsboro District The Genesee Conference was formed in 1810 by Bishops Asbury and McKendree in accordance with discretionary authority granted them by the 1808 General Conference. The conference was created from the Cayuga (western New York state) and Upper Canada (southern Ontario) districts of the New York Conference and the Susquehanna (north central Pennsylvania) district of the Philadelphia Conference. More specifically, the Susquehanna district included all Pennsylvania drained by the Susquehanna River above its junction with the Juniata River. The General Conference of 1820 transferred the Bald Eagle, Lycoming, Northumberland and Shamokin circuits to the Baltimore Conference. Peck's 1860 history of the Genesee Conference, page 339, describes that event as follows: The large tract extending from the mouth of the Juniata up to Wyoming on the north branch of the Susquehanna, and embracing Buffalo Valley, Penn's Valley, the Bald Eagle country, and the valley of the west branch, was taken from the Genesee Conference without its consent, and attached to the Baltimore Conference. We doubt if there has ever been such a case in the history of Methodism, and there certainly has been nothing like it since 1820. When large portions of annual conferences are detached it has always been done by the concurrence of the conference. It was a matter of no special importance at that time to the Genesee Conference, for she had territory enough, and too much. In addition to the territory now contained in five annual conferences, she had both provinces of Canada under her supervision, and little reason for instituting a quarrel about four circuits on her southern wing.
