PA. GOVERNOR WOLF FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST STATE GENERAL ASSEMBLY

Governor Tom Wolf is filing a lawsuit against the Pennsylvania General Assembly.  The Democrat says the suit is over what he called the Republican-led General Assembly’s “unconstitutional attempt to ban abortion in Pennsylvania.”  Wolf says lawmakers tried to get around his veto by loading proposed constitutional amendments into a Senate bill, which he said they “rammed through” during budget negotiations.  He says abortion will remain legal in Pennsylvania as long as he’s governor.
