Josh Shapiro

On the day they should be sending a budget to my desk, they decided to go home on vacation.

We can play a leading role in winning the battle for AI supremacy — but we have to do it in a way that puts the good people of Pennsylvania first.

I know Pennsylvanians have real concerns about these data centers and the impact they could have on our communities, our utility bills, and our environment, and so do I.

I think they should stay there until they get a budget on my desk. There’s no reason it can’t get done shortly.

There’s no excuses anymore. The legislature has a legal responsibility to show up for work, to do their jobs, and to put a budget on my desk.

But here in Pennsylvania, we’re going to keep standing up to protect our most vulnerable Pennsylvanians.

Donald Trump, Dr. (Mehmet) Oz and RFK Jr. are hellbent on trying to push aside people who rely on Medicaid to get the care they need.

A price cap I negotiated with PJM saved consumers across the region billions of dollars and my new data-center standards are designed to protect communities.

In Pennsylvania, developers who want access to the state’s 'Fast Track' permitting program must bring their own power, a condition demanded by Gov. Josh Shapiro.

The safety of the Governor and his family should never be weaponized for partisan gamesmanship – and our Administration will continue to work with law enforcement and elected officials across the Commonwealth to keep our leaders safe.

We appreciate the Office of Attorney General following its obligation under the law, without political interference, by approving this settlement agreement and ensuring these contractors will be paid for the work they have already…

I’ve been calling for this for three straight years.

No matter how hard Donald Trump fights in a court of law to whitewash our history, he will never change our values in Pennsylvania.

The chaos, cruelty and corruption that he’s been engaged in is not something that we support here in Pennsylvania.

The only thing I am focused on is beating my opponent for governor and helping other Democrats get elected here and sending a clear message to Donald Trump that the chaos, cruelty and corruption that he’s been engaged in is not something…

All that chaos at the federal level in the United States is making us all worse off.

As Pennsylvania continues to compete for major economic development projects and lead on innovation, we have a responsibility to set strict accountability standards and ensure these projects create real opportunity for our communities.

I’ve heard directly from Pennsylvanians who are concerned about the impact data center development could have on their communities, the environment, and their utility bills.

Dollar for dollar, we’ve invested just as much in violence prevention as we have in training new Pennsylvania State Police troopers… Because we know our two-pronged approach is the smart way to ensure public safety.

In Pennsylvania, we’re taking decisive action to streamline permitting, build more energy, and protect consumers — and today’s meeting makes it clear that states are leading the way.

I’ve put forward my Lightning Plan – a comprehensive plan to build more energy generation here in the Commonwealth, reform our permitting and siting laws, and diversify our energy sector to generate more renewables.

The Republican Congress is weak and only serves the will of Trump, Shapiro said. That includes giving Trump a free pass on wrongdoing and corruption.

Hold data center developers accountable to strict standards if they want our full support.

They’re too damned slow.

Unfortunately, the president of the United States has cut hundreds of millions of dollars from clean energy development in this commonwealth, which has cost us 26,000 union trade jobs who were set to work on these projects.
