PA. House only scheduled to meet total of 5.5 days in Jan and 3 days in Feb.

Crisis, what crisis?

Large parts of the budget remain unresolved, including funding for the state-related universities and the revenue side of the budget.

However, that is not a reason for the Republican leadership to actually call the State House into session. They will next be working half a day on Jan. 25th.

Actually, the way the system works, the Republicans make all of the decisions in closed door meetings, and then they let the Dems read the bills a few hours before the vote.

We would threaten to invade. Or at least bomb them a little. We hate dictatorships, other than our own.
