No action planned to balance budget in PA House
Nearly two weeks after the Senate approved a budget balancing tax plan lawmakers in the Pennsylvania House show no rush to return to Harrisburg. Spokesman Stephen Miskin said House members discuss alternatives such as a gas drilling tax and higher gross receipts taxes on heating fuel and utilities. Gov. Wolf’s spokesman urged a early return to finalize a balanced budget with spending cuts and investments. The GOP faces opposition among House members who distrust the Senate plan and insist on a full budget balance.
