Republican Stacy Garrity would veto recreational marijuana bill if elected Pennsylvania governor. In New Jersey, recreational marijuana sales brought in around $156 million in taxes since it was legalized in 2022, state figures show.

For the 3rd time in 4 years, the state House has passed a bill to raise PA’s minimum wage.

The latest measure, which was approved on a mostly partisan 104-95 vote, would see the current minimum wage of $7.25 an hour rise gradually to $15 an hour in 2029.

PAST TIME TO RAISE THE WAGE!! 👏👏👏

[Rep. Joanna McClinton @RepMcClinton]

As the PA Senate returns to session tomorrow, they have the chance to act. The #PAHouse already passed a raise now it’s time to follow through and get it done.
Pennsylvanians are ready. Raise the wage. 💙 #MadameSpeaker

@PennPolicy @pcntv @LGAustinDavis @GovernorShapiro @TransitPa @RepMcClinton This has become far too common across these kinds of communities — and there are 56,000 of these households across Pennsylvania, people living on land that more and more is being bought up by private equity.
@GovernorShapiro

That's right! Let's do this. #PABudgetAddress #GSD

@PennPolicy @pcntv @LGAustinDavis @GovernorShapiro @TransitPa @RepMcClinton @GovernorShapiro is right on point. Making transit a consideration in new housing is absolutely critical. #PABudgetAddress

@PennPolicy @pcntv @LGAustinDavis @GovernorShapiro @TransitPa We’ve already received more than 4,300 applications from child care centers to pay their workers and recruit more...
[this budget].. includes an additional $10 million to raise that recruitment and retention bonus from $450 to $630. @GovernorShapiro

@PennPolicy @pcntv @LGAustinDavis @GovernorShapiro @TransitPa PA needs data centers, and we need to make sure we regulate those facilities so we get the benefits of better infrastructure while stabilizing energy costs for everyday Pennsylvanians. #PABudgetAddress @GovernorShapiro
