Wake Up to the Issues: 

Join us on June 13th to learn about 2024-25 State Budget proposal and its impact on business! Engage directly with the lawmakers at this Wake Up to the Issues event focused on YOUR questions and priorities for next year’s state budget. 

On February 6^th, Governor Josh Shapiro shared his second annual budget address, calling the plan “ambitious” and citing his interest in “getting stuff done.” The $48.3 billion spending plan, an 8.4% increase from the previous year, prioritizes investments in K-12 schools, public transit, and economic development, and recommends an overhaul of the higher education system and an increase to the state’s minimum wage. Other aspects of the plan include legalizing recreational-use marijuana, regulating skill games, and phasing out State Police funding from the Motor License Fund.

At this event, you'll learn more about where lawmakers are at with budget negotiations and gain exclusive insights on the policy priorities of both chambers and parties. Come prepared with questions, comments, and feedback to share with your elected officials! 

Hear from the following state legislators who represent Lancaster County:

• Senator Scott Martin, 13th District (Senate Appropriations Chairman)
• Representative Jordan Harris, 186th District (House Appropriations Chairman)
• Representative Bryan Cutler, 100th District (House Republican Leader)
