Harrisburg, PA – As Governor Tom Wolf prepares to deliver his eighth and final budget address on Tuesday, today he released a video reflecting on his experiences as the 47th Governor of Pennsylvania. He shares his continued commitment to move Pennsylvania forward, which is possible thanks to wise investments and
focused priorities throughout his administration.
In his final year in office, the governor plans to continue his ongoing efforts to help Pennsylvanians by furthering investments that would support families, learners, and our workforce. Governor Wolf points to multiple key accomplishments during his administration, most notably sound investments that have resulted in a multi-billion-dollar revenue surplus and nearly $3 billion in the Rainy Day Fund. Through his leadership, the governor also invested $1.9 billion in schools, successfully expanded
affordable health insurance, supported our diverse workforce, enacted pension reform and criminal justice reform, took actions to ensure free and fair elections, lead by example through government reform measures, addressed climate change through environmental protection efforts, and created the PA GI Bill and the PA Farm Bill, both the first of their kind in the nation.
