>>Pennsylvania Equine Coalition Upset With Governor's Budget Proposal
(Harrisburg, PA) -- The Pennsylvania Equine Coalition is upset with Governor Tom Wolf's 2021 through 2022 budget proposal. Officials say it would result in the end of horse racing in the state as the plan would cut nearly 200-million-dollars from the Horse Racing Development Fund. However, the money that would normally go to that fund will instead be allocated to a program that would provide financial assistance for students enrolled in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education. The coalition is still upset about it as they claim the benefit will cost thousands of jobs.
