Senator Pileggi Comments on
Status of Senate Bill 1
Senate Majority Leader Dominic Pileggi (R-9) commented
after the House amended Senate Bill 1 on Monday:
"The House adopted 19 separate amendments to Senate Bill
1. Under House rules, the earliest that the bill can be sent
to the Senate is late Tuesday night. The Senate approved
this legislation, 48 to 1, on November 28. It is unfortunate
that the leadership of the House of Representatives chose to
delay substantive action for 12 days.
"The public and the Senate need to fully understand the
impact of the many House amendments. We will begin studying
them immediately.
"Strengthening Pennsylvania’s Open Records Law remains my
top legislative priority. As such, the Senate will act on
Senate Bill 1 as soon as we return in January."
More information about Senate Bill 1 and other state
issues is available at Senator Pileggi’s web site,
