The House Appropriations Committee unanimously adopted an amendment to House Bill 13 39 to bring Pennsylvania Utility Commission funding in line with the Governor's Budget Office spring update, then rereported the bill as amended.
Committee staff explained the amendment reflects "the spring update numbers that we received from the Governor's Budget Office," and that the additional funds — described in committee as roughly $600,000 — would be used by the PUC for administrative services.
The chair noted that the spring update numbers are provided to all committee offices so members are "up to date on what the numbers are from the Governor's Budget Office." Committee members recorded their votes with all Republicans and all Democrats voting to approve the amendment; the amendment passed unanimously and the bill was rereported from committee as amended.
No further discussion on the bill as amended was recorded at the meeting.
