Tears, apology reshape tense Senate moment in Harrisburg
Sen. Albert Pechan, an Armstrong County Republican, wept on the Senate floor after Sen. Paul W. Mahady apologized for circulating a literature piece calling Pechan and lobbyist Jon Hauser of Beneficial Finance Corp. unfairly influencing a bill regulating consumer finance firms. Mahady admitted circulating it but said she did not write it and apologized for the inaccuracy and bad taste. The bill aims to regulate consumer finance companies selling life insurance on loans, a measure opponents say benefits large firms at the expense of smaller lenders.
