July 11, 2024 - Harrisburg, PA
Governor Josh Shapiro signed into law a bipartisan budget for fiscal year 2024-25 that delivers on his top priorities and creates more freedom and opportunity for all Pennsylvanians. With historic investments in education, economic development, law enforcement and violence prevention, workforce development, affordable housing, health care, public transit and infrastructure, and much more - this budget invests in the people of Pennsylvania and solves some of the most pressing issues our Commonwealth faces. Pennsylvania is the only state in the nation with a divided legislature, but Governor Shapiro has proven once again that he can work with both parties to get stuff done and deliver real results for Pennsylvanians. After proposing an ambitious budget that invests in Pennsylvanians in February, the final product is a result of hard work and compromise from all sides, and it follows through on the Governor's promises to Pennsylvanians. "Since my first day in office, I've been focused on getting stuff done for the good people of Pennsylvania, solving the most pressing problems we face, and bringing people together in a bipartisan manner to deliver results - and I'm proud to sign this budget into law that makes historic investments in education and economic development, while continuing investments in public safety and violence prevention, all while cutting costs and reducing taxes," said Governor Josh Shapiro. "Pennsylvania is the only state in the nation with a divided legislature - and I'm proud that we came together with leaders in both Chambers and both parties to show that we can do big things together to make Pennsylvanians' lives better."
