House Acts to Reopen PA Business
With the governor stopping legislative efforts at every turn to safely reopen the state’s economy, I joined a bipartisan vote last night to terminate the portion of the governor’s emergency declaration that has held millions of business owners and employees across the state hostage.
Under House Resolution 836, which must also be approved by the Senate, the governor could no longer regulate so-called non-life-sustaining businesses differently than those business operations deemed life-sustaining under his March 19 business closure order. In other words, he can no longer decide which businesses remain open and which will remain closed.
Once the Senate approves the measure, the governor’s emergency orders to close or open businesses are terminated. House Resolution 836 never goes to the governor for any action thus it cannot be vetoed.
