From Pittsburgh Tribune-Review:
“Given the troubles in the labor market, consumers being conservative in spending, all indications are that this will be another difficult year for state revenues,” Sweet said. “Even the next fiscal year, because employment will be slow to recover in Pennsylvania, you’d expect another difficult year for revenues.”
Republican leaders are talking about cutting state spending and trying to help the private sector create jobs. Democratic leaders are talking about using state programs, such as job training or low-interest loans, to help the jobless get employment and encourage employers to hire.
