Wolf will officially veto GOP effort to end coronavirus emergency | PA Post

Gov. Tom Wolf will veto a concurrent resolution to terminate the disaster declaration he has used to manage the commonwealth's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, his spokesperson said Wednesday evening.

The decision caps a month-long legal struggle between the Republican-controlled legislature, whose leaders argued the resolution did not need to be presented to the governor, and Wolf, who has maintained that he has the prerogative to disapprove — effectively veto — any resolutions presented to him by the General Assembly.

Pa.'s mandatory mask order complicates school reopening plans

The state Department of Health's order requiring all Pennsylvanians to wear masks adds another twist to the already convoluted plot of reopening schools this fall.

The order, which also applies to students and school employees, was announced last week, as Lancaster County schools were in the thick of planning for the 2020-21 school year, with many opting to encourage, not require, mask-wearing.

Now, school leaders must consider how and when to enforce the new rule.
