Following is a listing of executive and legislative action for the week of May 12. Members of the General Assembly are set to return to session June 2.
Signed Into Law
Gov. Tom Corbett signed HB 434, which requires school employees to report suspected child abuse. The sponsor of the legislation, state Rep. David Maloney, R-Berks, said the new law closes the school reporting loophole and applies the same standards for reporting suspected child abuse to school employees as those that exist for other employees of other workplaces.
