(Pittsburgh, PA) Governor Josh Shapiro and some of his administration members went to Big Tom’s Barber Shop in the Hill District of Pittsburgh on Tuesday to bring up how Pennsylvania small businesses can not operate without a license. Shapiro noted that every delay that a license is not there for a worker, money is not earned. Shapiro spoke about how much faster hard-working small businesses and their contributors will be able to earn a license faster in Pennsylvania and how many have already been given the first step towards this goal.
