PA. Repubs finally calling House back into session - 2 months into the budget crisis

Non-profits that provide human services are rapidly running out of money, and are going into debt. School districts and public colleges still have no idea how much state funding they will receive. School districts are using up all of their reserves waiting for funds to start flowing. The state budget is two months overdue and a compromise is not in sight.

Meanwhile, the Repubs who control the House and Senate have not been calling the legislature into session to resolve the crisis. For the most part, they left town at the end of June, except for a couple days.

The State House will finally meet on August 25th - which is at least a full month after the last session.
