On today’s episode of The Confluence:
- Gov. Josh Shapiro is traveling the state drumming up support for his key proposals in his $44 billion budget proposal, but the state treasurer warns the commonwealth could be headed for a fiscal cliff, so lawmakers need to protect rainy day funds. We discuss these issues and more with our roundtable of politics reporters.
- Today’s guests include: Stephen Caruso, capitol reporter with Spotlight PA; Sam Dunklau, WESA’s capitol bureau chief; Marley Parish, state Senate reporter with the Pennsylvania Capital-Star; and Chris Potter, WESA’s government and accountability editor.
