During the governorโ€™s annual budget address, he looked straight at Republican lawmakers and said, โ€œJust because you say it, doesn't make it so.โ€ 

Not withstanding, Article 8 Section 12 of the Pennsylvania Constitution clearly establishes that the governor and his agencies are required to provide a financial plan for not less than the next succeeding five fiscal years.  

These financial plans must realistically include projected expenditures for capital projects, specifically itemized by purpose, and the proposed sources of financing.

Every year since I've been on the Senate Republican Appropriations Committee, we have asked each agency to show those projections. 

Every year, we get frustrating excuses and standard โ€œI Donโ€™t Know, Ask the Budget Secretaryโ€ responses about why those projections cannot be presented.

During this afternoonโ€™s Senate state budget hearing, I asked PA Budget Secretary Zach Reber why the Budget Office/PA Department Revenue have once again failed to produce five-year projections for future Commonwealth expendituresโ€”despite the clearly stated Constitutional requirements.

Unfortunately, his insufficient answers were no more enlightening or substantive, than his failure to answer my previous question on why the Shapiro administration refuses to allow open drilling on state lands to serve as an abundant revenue source for Pennsylvaniaโ€™s Orphan Well Plugging fund?
