GOVERNOR WOLF SAYS SHAPIRO WILL BE DIFFERENT KIND OF LEADER

Outgoing Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf says his successor will be very different from him. Current Democratic Attorney General Josh Shapiro has split with Wolf on several important policies – including Wolf’s top climate-change priority to make Pennsylvania the first major fossil fuel state to impose carbon-pricing.  But in an interview late last week, Wolf also says Shapiro will serve the state very well. The present governor tells Spotlight PA he’s extremely confident in the future of the executive office because of his opinion of Shapiro’s abilities.  He’ll be sworn in on January 17th.
