Pennsylvania agricultural groups have some changes theyâd like to see in Gov. Tom Wolfâs budget.
The Pennsylvania Equine Coalition blasted Wolfâs renewed proposal to yank $200 million of slot machine revenue from a fund that covers horse racing purses, drug testing and other costs.
Wolf wants the money to create scholarships for students at the state-owned universities, but the fund is the largest revenue stream for the stateâs horse racing industry, dwarfing the $20 million in wagers that the tracks generated annually before the pandemic.
âEveryone recognizes that college debt and rising tuition rates are major problems, but you donât fix one debt problem by putting an entire sector of the agriculture industry out of business and thousands of people out of work,â said Pete Peterson, an Equine Coalition spokesman.

Pennsylvania Horse Racing Association Offers Live Foal Cams Sponsored by:
The Pennsylvania Horse Racing Association (PHRA) is giving adults and kids alike an educational opportunity to watch what could be the next set of champion race horses being born through its free live foal cams.
The foal cams will go live today from Kennett Square-based Thoroughbred farm Walnut Green and Wellsville-based Standardbred operation Diamond Creek Farm, where a total of 52 expectant mares will be giving birth to either a frisky filly or charming colt from now until the end of May. The foal cams will be live until the end of April.
The board voted unanimously to take that action during their meeting Thursday.
Commissioners received a report from Knoxville attorney Benjamin Lauderback late last year that found Peterson unnecessarily berated but didnât threaten the job of a fire prevention officer, Roger Davis.
Peterson chastised Davis after he looped the State Fire Marshalâs Office in on a conversation about using the former Ashe Street Courthouse to house homeless people with COVID-19.
Lauderback did, however, hear from multiple people that Petersonâs management style âcan and does cross the border of profane and demeaning.â
Commissioners have said they intend to factor Lauderbackâs report into their annual evaluation of Peterson, which they put on hold in the fall while they waited for the attorneyâs findings.
