The Pennsylvania Senate Democratic Caucus recently released a COVID-19 relief funding plan that would allocate $4 billion to help Pennsylvanians and, they say, shore up the Commonwealth’s economy.
The Pennsylvania Coronavirus Aid, Relief & Economic Security Act of 2021 would provide direct aid to workers, families, small businesses and “vulnerable populations.” The plan would continue funding for already existing aid programs and would establish new programs, as well.
Senate Democratic Leader Jay Costa appears on Smart Talk to lay out details of the funding plan and the proposed priorities.
