With the Order to deny the STAY issued by Federal Judge Stickman on Tuesday, the PA House Republican leadership is set to bring HB2787 back to the floor for a vote to override the veto of Governor Wolf.
Contacted for this story, Mike Straub, Press Secretary to the Speaker of the House and PA House Republican Caucus Spokesman was asked to confirm if this was indeed the case “Yes, that’s the plan. Veto override on 2787.”
In an exclusive interview with talkwilliamsport.com, State Senator Doug Mastriano also confirmed “HB2787 is set for vote on Wednesday in the PA House and we need to be ready in the Senate at a moments notice.”
On Monday, Governor Tom Wolf vetoed House Bill 2787, which would have mandated that school fall activities be under the sole jurisdiction of local school districts.
The Pennsylvania House of Representatives has been called into session tomorrow for a 1 p.m. vote.
