AFA of PA ACTION ALERT
November 12, 2014
Issue
Pray as Congress and the PA General Assembly Return Today
Details
Congress will be returning to Washington, DC today to begin its lame duck session. As mentioned in a previous alert, much damage can be done during this time period which ends right before Christmas. Although, there is a reported bit of good news in that the Democrats in the Senate have indicated they will not ram through President Obama’s nominee for Attorney General. Not sure if Harry Reid got the message!
The PA House and PA Senate will also be returning to Harrisburg today to wrap up last minute business and vote on new GOP leadership for the two year session. They will just be there this one day. In the House Mike Turzai (R-Allegheny) is expected to be elected the next Speaker of the House to replace retiring Sam Smith. Other House leadership positions are also up for grabs, none of these candidates send off major alarms. However, over in the Senate is a different story!
