Governor Tom Wolf will head into 2017 with perhaps even bigger challenges than his first two years in office. Wolf, of course, is a Democrat. He will face Pennsylvania’s largest Republican majorities in decades in his re-election year.

For the first time, Wolf says he’ll give lawmakers a budget proposal that doesn’t include a major tax increase.
