The Dentons Pennsylvania Public Affairs team has you covered with a curated run-down of the top news headlines and trending policy issues for the week ending May 26.

This week, Pennsylvania’s treasurer wants the state to start sending unclaimed money directly to the people it belongs to, a proactive system that a dozen other states have adopted. What are Governor Shapiro’s biggest moments from his short time in office? As Pennsylvania approaches the June 30 budget deadline, top lawmakers are busy negotiating and Capitol lips are tightly sealed about what is being discussed. And finally, Gov. Josh Shapiro took action to develop a 10-year master plan helping older adults statewide access resources and “age with dignity.”

  • Pa. is sitting on billions in unclaimed property. This bill would get some of it back to its owners. Spotlight PA
  • Shapiro’s first four months ‘by the numbers’. City&State
  • How Harrisburg Works: New caucuses, special election season, and the death of a bill. Spotlight PA
  • Shapiro orders development of 10-year master plan to help older adults. Pennsylvania Capital-Star
