Jun 9, 2021 >>House Moves To End Governor's Disaster Declaration (Harrisburg, PA) -- The Pennsylvania House is moving to end Governor Tom Wolf's COVID emergency disaster declaration. The governor initiated the disaster declaration in March of last year and has renewed it five times since then. House Majority Leader Kerry Benninghoff says it's clear to the Caucus that this emergency is over, that COVID mitigation orders have ended, and the mask mandate will be lifted in days. Wolf says the disaster declaration was critical to help stop the spread of COVID-19 and allowed for waivers and extensions to provide for Pennsylvanians and businesses. The resolution now heads to the Republican-controlled Senate.
