A local lawmaker plans to convene another public hearing later this week to hear information about the impact of the state joining a carbon-tax emissions program.
State Representative and Pennsylvania House Environmental Resources and Energy Committee Chairman Daryl Metcalfe will lead the hearing in Harrisburg on Monday beginning at 10 a.m. This hearing will include presentations from representatives of various companies, unions, and organizations.
Later in the day on Monday, around 2 p.m. Metcalfe plans to hold a news conference introducing a new initiative to protect the rights of citizens against abuse of emergency powers by a state governor.
Both events will be streamed live online through Metcalfe’s website.
