John,

Yesterday, I had the honor of delivering my third budget address as Pennsylvania’s Governor.

At a moment when so many Pennsylvanians are counting on their government to deliver real results, I shared my plan with lawmakers to keep solving problems, build on the foundation of progress we’ve laid together, and address the workforce, health care, and housing challenges we face.

I’m proud as hell to be Pennsylvania’s Governor — and I’m going to keep fighting to get stuff done for all Pennsylvanians and strengthen the Commonwealth we call home. If you support my plan to invest in Pennsylvania’s future, will you sign your name below?

John, we’ve come together to build a real foundation of progress for Pennsylvania over the last two years. But we can build on that foundation to keep solving problems — which is why I couldn’t be more excited to share with you just some of what my budget will accomplish:

We’re going to invest an additional $526 million under the new adequacy formula to get money and resources out to the schools that need it most.

We’re going to continue our support for school repairs, mental health, universal free breakfast, student teacher stipends, special education, and more.

We’re going to develop commonsense energy policies that will bring down costs, protect and create jobs, and take meaningful action to address climate change.

We’re going to invest $10 million to help first-time home buyers cover closing costs.

We’re going to legalize adult-use cannabis, bring in $1.3 billion in new revenue to our Commonwealth, and expunge the records of people who have been convicted for nonviolent possession of small amounts of marijuana.

We’re going to more than double our funding for Ag Innovation to help farmers embrace the latest technology and contribute even more to our economy.

We’re going to cut taxes by over $10 billion by 2029 to encourage companies to move here, expand here, and make Pennsylvania more competitive.

We’re going to invest $10 million to ensure rural hospitals have the resources to meet their needs.

And we’re going to add four more new cadet classes for the Pennsylvania State Police to keep communities across our Commonwealth safe.

John, my new budget will ensure we have good schools in every zip code, grow our economy, slash taxes, make health care and energy more affordable, keep our kids and grandkids safe, and make Pennsylvania more competitive.

If that’s an agenda you can get behind, sign your name below to show your support today. With your support, we can show everyone that Pennsylvanians are more than ready to invest in our Commonwealth’s future.

Thank you,

Josh Shapiro
