Gov. Tom Wolf is taking hits on issues ranging from vaccines to tolling bridges, from ballot questions to charter schools, from budget pitches to nursing homes.
He’s the target of a jab fest seemingly bent on turning him into a political punching bag. Everything he does or seeks to do draws opposition and criticism.
He’s stirred such ire among Republicans that the state GOP just officially censured him! Though who knows what that means, other than maybe he’s now banned from GOP pig roasts.
The governor's administration has proposed placing tolls on the Harrisburg bridge and other bridges. Some lawmakers oppose the idea as a new tax, but proponents say it will raise money needed for bridge projects.
