Bill proposes spending cap for state and local governments
A measure moving through the Pennsylvania House would cap annual spending by the state and municipalities. The limit would tie spend increases to personal income growth, potentially via a CPI based index, with the General Assembly setting the rate and voters approving it as a constitutional amendment. Local governments could adopt higher rates with voter approval.
