@MikeStraub_PA Let's not forget about the time now Gov.-elect Shapiro said special elections should be held in conjunction with primary elections to save money and reduce confusion.

The fact is - Leader Cutler scheduled a special election on Feb. 7 ... and if the other two members had quit on election night, Cutler would have scheduled all for that date. But they waited until session ended and hoped the rules would be ignored, but instead, lost the majority.
Hmmm... but the last time we scheduled a special election before the primary, Dems called it very expensive and a "needless complication" intended to confuse voters. (https://t.co/zupafI2IaV)
In a letter to both Cutler and McClinton, both of whom sent letters to Wheeler asking her to acquiesce to their respective special elections, Wheeler said she views her role as administrative -- she signs off on any order from an elected official put before her.
This assertion by DA Krasner is not grounded in fact or reality. The General Assembly has exercised its impeachment power on a number of local officials…as recently as this session, i.e. HR 99.
House GOP leaders give an update - plan is to vote the budget in the House this afternoon. A budget that addresses the challenges facing families today and supports Pennsylvania’s future.

Do you all remember K. Leroy Irvis?The actual first Black Speaker of the PA House.
On top of his historical significance, he’s kind of hard to forget. There’s a pretty big building in Harrisburg named after him and his portrait is hanging in the hall of the House.
Here’s a quick image comparison slider between the existing #Pennsylvania Congressional map and the one chosen by the state Supreme Court today. @WGAL#redistricting#PApol
