The Honorable Joseph Scarnati
The Honorable Mike Turzai
Dear President Pro Tempore Scarnati and Speaker Turzai:
If it meets with the approval of the legislature, I am respectfully requesting a Joint Session of the General Assembly on Wednesday, September 28, 2016, at a time that is convenient for the House and Senate. The purpose of this session would be to address the members of the House and Senate about our collective efforts to lead the nation in combatting the opioid and heroin crisis facing Pennsylvania.
After consultation and discussion with you, I believe we share the view that we can make the most profound and positive impact this session for the people of Pennsylvania by dealing with this issue as part of the remainder of the 2015-16 Legislative Session, rather than calling a Special Session.
This issue is one that we have all taken action on – be it the work that the Republican and Democratic caucuses have done in their communities with those struggling with addiction, or the legislation that the members of the General Assembly has positioned for passage – I thank you for all that you have done in the legislature and with my administration, to help those in need.
I look for to continuing to work with the legislature to continue to address this epidemic that we all care deeply about.
Sincerely,
TOM WOLF
Governor
