Gov. wishes to send out $145M grants to struggling companies Dec 24, 2020 HARRISBURG (AP) Gov. Tom Wolf on Wednesday proposed spending $145 million in reserves from a worker’s compensation fund to help the hardest-hit businesses cope with the raging coronavirus pandemic. The Democratic governor’s plan requires a vote from the Republican-majority Legislature to appropriate the money, and there has been no deal to accomplish that. Wolf said he wants the money to go out in the form of grants to businesses that have been most harmed by the COVID-19 pandemic, among them restaurants, bars and gyms. During an online news conference, Wolf said people were worn out by the pandemic, even as vaccines are starting to be administered.
