ROYERSFORD – Following the governor’s annual budget address delivered today to a joint session of the state House and Senate, Rep. Michael Corr (R-Montgomery) issued the following statement offering his own budget priorities as the Legislature begins work to craft a new state spending plan:
“I’d like to see a final budget that protects taxpayers while also investing in important areas like education and workforce development.
“I believe the governor should work with the Legislature to enact a reasonable and responsible severance tax on natural gas so we can ensure large energy companies are paying their fair share of taxes in Pennsylvania.
“My colleagues and I in the Legislature now will begin the process of thoroughly reviewing the governor’s proposal and looking for ways to cut costs and reduce expenditures in an effort to save taxpayers’ money.”
Rep. Michael Corr
