Senate Leadership Letter to Governor Regarding Budget Proposal

 

The Honorable Edward G. Rendell

Governor

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

225 Main Capitol Building

Harrisburg, PA 17120

 

Governor Rendell,

 

It should go without saying that we are extremely hopeful the Pittsburgh Steelers and Philadelphia Eagles will meet in Super Bowl XXXIX on February 6.  We believe it vital, however, that you submit to the General Assembly your budget proposal in accordance with state law.

 

The Budget Code requires that the governor, “not later than the first full week in February of each year,” “shall submit to the General Assembly … a State budget and program and financial plan.”

 

We eagerly await your budget submission the week of February 7.  Should you choose to delay the budget address, which is optional, we will cooperate.

 

Very truly yours,

 

Robert C. Jubelirer

David J. Brightbill
