Free Period Products, EV Fees & More Surprises in PA’s New Budget

City Cast Pittsburgh

The state just passed a $47.6 billion dollar budget — our biggest one yet. It was only two weeks late this time (not bad, by Pennsylvania standards!) and sets a bunch of new priorities.

Spotlight PA’s capitol reporter Stephen Caruso joins City Cast Pittsburgh host Megan Harris and City Cast Philly host Trenae Nuri to talk about where the state is putting its money and what got left on the cutting room floor.

We mentioned this episode from last year about why school funding in PA isn’t fair, and this one about school vouchers.
