Pennsylvania has a new budget for this fiscal year.
The House and Senate approved the more than $40 billion budget late last week.
There are no new tax increases, but a major investment in public education.
Pre-K through 12th grade education will see over $13 billion in investments. There are also significant increases to nursing homes and highway infrastructure.
The House passed the budget 140-61; local state Representative Marci Mustello (R-Butler) voted in favor of the budget, while Representative Aaron Bernstine (R-Slippery Rock) voted against it saying there was too much of a spending increase.
