Democrats Hold Back as Pa. Solons Open Door Wide
Harrisburg AP reports both chambers move toward open meetings. A House Republican committee backs public committee sessions and records while allowing executive sessions with no votes. Senate leaders favor selective openness, proposing open meetings only if chairmen choose, and voting records to be published. Changes include shrinking standing committees from 21 to 17, limiting Senate seats per committee to four or five, and tighter notice rules.
