LETTER SEEK ANSWERS FROM STATE OFFICIALS

Pennsylvania House Majority Leader Kerry Benninghoff, in conjunction with a number of House committee chairs, sent letters to various Wolf administration cabinet secretaries this week seeking an update on regulatory and enforcement matters that have been suspended, waived or otherwise changed during the COVID-19 emergency. Agencies receiving letters include the Office of Administration; Department of Aging; Departments of Banking, Education, Labor and Industry; Office of Inspector General; Department of State; Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs; Departments of Health and Human Services; Department of Military and Veterans Affairs; Department of Revenue; and Department of Transportation. Benninghoff said legislative oversight of executive action is critical to the separation of powers and the proper administration of government.
