Gov. Shapiro recently was seen at a courtside seat at a pro basketball game. According the the newspaper reports, the ticket he received (from a lobbyist?) was very expensive. Shapiro’s office said that Shapiro was holding a “political meeting.” Here is the letter I am sending tomorrow:
Dear Governor Shapiro:
The basketball courtside ticket for a “political meeting” has damaged your reputation for integrity and honesty. It was not a good way to begin your administration. I am saying this as a supporter who worked very hard in the campaign in Carbon County, putting your literature at hundreds of homes in Summit Hill, Nesquehoning, and Jim Thorpe, and distributing literally hundreds of yard signs at homes around the county.
Please go back to the strict policy on gifts for Pennsylvania employees that Governor Wolf required. I know some people thought those policies were somewhat over the top, but Wolf served for eight years without a scandal, something of a record in Pennsylvania.
Good one. Thanks.
