Senate Majority Leader Dominic Pileggi made himself available to questions by the media earlier this evening. He addressed the Governor’s healthcare legislation and said it did not pass because it lacked a sustainable source of funding and said it would be irresponsible to pass it when the Commonwealth could be facing a historic state deficit. He said that he is open to scheduling more session days before the election and is waiting to hear back from the House. He said it was unfortunate that rate mitigation was not able to be resolved but said the Administration, the House and the Senate are going to work together find the best solution.
