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 September 8th.

This week, a look at the upcoming general election. Thanks to budget dysfunction in the state Capitol, people filing divorces, estates, and many other legal actions across Pennsylvania are getting a financial break while courts lose millions of dollars. The week after Labor Day means it’s the time when things start getting real for candidates in this fall’s off-year elections. And finally, Gov. Shapiro has waffled on whether he’d support the state entering the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI).
