Better late than never. Governor Josh Shapiro on Sunday signed a budget deal that will find state government for the next fiscal year. Like last year, it fails to provide additional funding for mass transit. It fails to increase the minimum wage, which would create additional revenue. But the rainy-day fund has gone untouched.
This budget includes $920 million more for education, and get this, $125 million in economic development grants.
It will be very helpful to wealthy developers. For the rest of us, not so much.
