.Governor Josh Shapiro promised to support Lifeline Scholarships for kids in failing schools. Once in office, he vetoed his own promise to appease the teachers' unions that backed his campaign. In this year's budget, he MUST make things right. State lawmakers MUST make sure of it.




Months of political gridlock due to Governor Josh Shapiro's failed leadership have left the state without a budget. Pennsylvanians deserve more.Governor Josh Shapiro must step up and lead like he promised to do as a candidate but has failed to deliver since taking office.


We can't afford Governor Josh Shapiro's budget plan. Here's what we actually need: 💰 A budget that doesn't spend more than the state takes in. 🚘 Safe roads and bridges; no transit bailouts. 🎒 "Dollars follow the child" options for students in failing schools.


"SEPTA is off the rails, and it’s long overdue for some serious reform. But this cannot happen if the governor and House Democrats also keep this political theater in motion." - Kevin Kane in The Delaware Valley Journal









🚨 No more budget games in Harrisburg, Governor Josh Shapiro. Families can’t afford government gridlock.
