Shapiro math doesnโt add up. ๐คโ๐ป
When Gov. Shapiro says he wants to "๐๐ฃ๐ซ๐๐จ๐ฉ in PA", he really means ๐๐ผ๐ Pennsylvanians.
Today, we recognize Presidents Day and reflect on the effort it takes to guide our country in the right direction. ๐บ๐ธโค๏ธ๐
Originally, the holiday was to honor our first president โ George Washington โ but it has since been expanded.
It just doesnโt add up.
State spending would ๐ by more than $๐ฏ.๐ฎ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ข๐ก under Shapiroโs new budget plan.
The @pasenategop will be working hard to get spending down.

I don`t stand for out-of-control spending with no explanation of how we are going to responsibly pay for it. The governorโs annual budget address โ with all of the proposed spending and government intrusion on Pennsylvania families โ was obviously his audition for being the sweetheart of the Democratic National Committee.
