Dem Govs Get It Done: Gov. Wolf’s COVID-19 Recovery Plan For Pennsylvania

Latest News

Democratic Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf unveiled a three-phase “Plan for Pennsylvania” to provide both individual and business financial relief and to allow for an expedient recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. The plan addresses everything from student loan debt and food insecurity to paid family and medical leave and protections for workers.
Gov. Wolf is also part of a regional reopening pact with the governors of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware, and Massachusetts.
Wolf noted that the Plan for Pennsylvania is an initial framework and a strong testing regime will need to be in place before reopening, but when that time comes, Gov. Wolf will be ready.
