Governor Wolf is trying to sell the severance tax this year as part of his “Restore Pennsylvania” plan. A severance tax would do nothing to restore the state. In fact, it would hurt areas that have seen an economic resurgence since the shale revolution began. Why would we do anything to risk the good-paying jobs and economic benefits we have seen over the past decade?
Take action if you oppose the severance tax.
Urge your legislator to oppose a severance tax!
