The state’s next fiscal year will start in just over a week, and a budget has yet to be set.
Top Pennsylvania lawmakers worked Thursday to assemble a budget package that is due ahead of the July 1 fiscal year state, but behind-the-scenes disagreements remained and rank-and-file lawmakers had yet to hear details about what they will be asked to vote on.
Still- Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf and the Republican-controlled Legislature have predicted that budget legislation would pass on time and without the partisan fights that marked Wolf’s first three years in office. A cash surplus is easing the process this year.
