Governor Shapiro and DCED Sec. Siger to Make Major Economic Development Announcement

Published | Video Starts at 37:42

They got to do a better job of talking to one another, and the Senate needs to a better job of actually showing up for work. I introduced my budget 259 days ago. They managed to show up for work 35 days. And by the way, they get paid full time for showing up for work only 35 days. I think that's offensive to the good people of Pennsylvania who work every day, and they work their tails off, especially in communities like this. (37:42–37:51)
