About this listen
Today, June 30, is the deadline for Pennsylvania lawmakers to pass a new state budget. But the legislature appears poised to miss the budget deadline for the fourth straight year. A years-long debate over how much to tax so-called “skill games” in Pennsylvania has escalated, leading up to the state budget deadline. And Democrats in the state House are pushing to reform the Pennsylvania’s tax code to make it harder for corporations to hide income in other places.
It's being called America250. On July 4th of next year, the United States celebrates its 250th birthday.
Across the country and across Pennsylvania planning is underway. Joining us to tell us more is Sharon Myers, President/CEO of Visit Hershey & Harrisburg.
And this programming note: We look forward to bringing you conversations with many additional central Pennsylvania tourism leaders through the month of July to find out how they’re gearing up for next July’s America250, so keep an eye and an ear out for more conversations.
