Pennsylvania Gov. Wolf calls for $2,000 payments to help families ‘survive inflation’
Pennsylvania families making less than $80,000 would be eligible for payment, Wolf says

By Greg Norman | Fox News

Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf is calling on Republican lawmakers in his state Monday to help pass a bill that would allow Pennsylvania to send $2,000 to families making less than $80,000 in order to help them fight inflation.

The Democrat said this is his second attempt at trying to get this bill passed and Pennsylvania can afford such payouts as it has an $800 billion economy.

"I want to give Pennsylvanians the step up they need to survive inflation and higher prices. So, $2,000 to any family, to families making $80,000 dollars or less. We estimated that about 250,000 families will apply for this," Wolf said. 

"So that's a 500-million-dollar operation expense and it's going to provide needed buffers against high prices," he added. "And we hope prices are up temporarily, but it's going to give families some room to get back on their feet."

"We have the ability to do this financially," Wolf continued. "We can actually help families get lifesaving medicine, out-of-state funds. We can help families stay in their homes. We can help families afford to eat. Why on earth wouldn't we do it? Especially now again when we have the money sitting in the bank?"

Wolf also said, "We have an $800 billion … economy in Pennsylvania."

This not genuine.  The is Dem dirty pool to put GOP state office candidates in a bad light near the election.

Those mean Republicans won't give you more inflationary free money.

According to Biden, isn't inflation over?

@mystery-ak

Myst,I think this one qualifies as a double post. Once here,and once in the silliness thread.

It really is hard to believe that anyone over the age of 16 could think such a thing would work.

Although,chances are they are just playing to the professional level welfare careerists because those people ARE their voter bases.

Which,IMHO,is even more shameful that being stupid enough to believe it is a good plan to spend more money.

After all,you can't help being born stupid,but nobody is born to be a professional liar and thief.

Why not pass a temporary sales tax holiday, or heaven forbid, leave the money in a rainy day fund?  I know, this a sixties radical, and every piece of rhetoric has to pit one group against another.

There are plenty of water and sewer systems, roads and bridges in PA that require repair. But, hey, if the Dems can hand out money, who cares!!

I believe one of the primary reasons Wolf won was because his predecessor -- a Republican -- was instrumental in getting Pennsylvania's formerly low gas tax raised about 25 cents a gallon during his term.

So this "disaster", was the result of a previous one which the dem-coms had relatively little to do with!
