Is Pennsylvania state government filled with RINO'S...??

Pennsylvania Republicans Seemingly Ignore screw over Trump Team’s Overtures  December 1, 2020  AAN Staff 










                     Republican leaders in Pennsylvania’s House of Representatives have announced that they won’t meet again until next year.

The revelation suggests the GOP-controlled chamber will not intercede on behalf of the Trump legal team’s election challenges in the Keystone State.

The Washington Examiner reports:

House Speaker Bryan Cutler, R-Quarryville, and Majority Leader Kerry Benninghoff, R-Bellefonte, released a joint statement saying that they would not be calling their chamber to Harrisburg on Monday, the final possible day for the 2019-20 session of the Legislature to meet.

“We are physically unable to consider any new legislation before the end of session,” they wrote in the statement. “A simple resolution takes three legislative days for consideration and a concurrent resolution takes five legislative days to move through both chambers, which means we do not have the time needed to address any new resolutions in our current session.”

Given that the House won’t meet before the Electoral College gathers to pick the next president Dec. 14, President Donald Trump’s hopes that state lawmakers in Pennsylvania would step in and choose electors appear to be dashed.

Trump and his allies have alleged that presumed President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the Nov. 3 election was the result of widespread fraud, including in Pennsylvania. He tweeted that Republican-controlled legislatures in the states where he disputed the results should hold votes to pick a new slate of electors.
