Pa Attorney General Shapiro Says Health Secretary Does Have Power to Order Making Mandate.

(Harrisburg, Pa.) Pennsylvania’s Attorney General Josh Shapiro is weighing in on the legality of Acting Secretary of Health Alison Beam’s masking order in schools. Shapiro’s office has filed a brief in Harrisburg that says Beam does have the power to mandate masks.
The letter is in response to a lawsuit that claims she does not have the power to order a mask mandate. The lead plaintiff is State Senate President Pro Tempore Jake Corman said Beam needs to follow regulatory laws on school masks, but Shapiro said she already has that power.

No Crosby, No Malkin Gives Penguins Camp an Unusual Vibe

No Crosby, no Malkin gives Penguins camp an unusual vibe
By WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer
CRANBERRY TOWNSHIP, Pa. (AP) — The Pittsburgh Penguins have opened training camp without stars Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. Crosby is recovering from wrist surgery that will force him to miss the first few weeks of the season. Malkin likely won’t be back until late November at the earliest after having knee surgery in June. Coach Mike Sullivan says the injuries will provide leadership opportunities for younger players on the team who have spent their careers in Malkin and Crosby’s considerable shadows.
