ASSOCIATED PRESS HARRISBURG Penn- second lady, Giselle Fetterman, will help lead a campaign to raise awareness of this Census Bureau count and encourage residents to re- spond to the census, state offi cials said Monday. Fetterman, whose hus- band is Lt. Gov. John Fet- terman, said she will tour the state, making stops in Philadelphia and Centre, Erie, Allegheny, Lancaster and Luzerne counties over the next three months. Gov.

Tom Wolf signed an executive order in 2018 to create a commission to help ensure a robust census count and signed legislation in October authorizing up to $4 million to buttress the count. Meanwhile, 94 non- profi community organiza- tions are working together to encourage their targeted communities to return cen- sus forms. administration said Pennsylvania receives $26.8 billion annually for federally funded programs, based on the census, amounting to about $2,000 per Pennsylvanian per year. More than 20 states are committing hundreds of millions of dollars to boost- ing census counts. Current census projec- tions show Pennsylvania is growing more slowly than the rest of the country, and is expected to lose a con- gressional seat in 2023.

Residents can respond to the form by mail, by phone or online. Most households will receive a census invita- tion in the mail by April 1. In May, census takers will begin visiting households that responded. Counts will be submitted in December. STATE Pa.

The fi rst conversion is expected at the down- town Lancaster location in February. Locations not being con- verted to the brewhouse concept have to meet standards for location, traffi and profi tability to remain open, according to the comment. Once the conversions are completed, plans to open new locations as well as launch a quick-serve version of the restaurant known as On the Fly.

Now, after legislative ef- forts stalled and a vaping sickness stirred new con- cerns, the governors of New York, New Jersey and Con- necticut still want to make recreational pot legal. And they and governor have been com- paring notes on how to do it. year, work with our neighbors to coordi- nate a safe and fair New Gov.

Andrew Cuomo said this week. His state hosted the four Dem- ocratic governors for an Oc- tober summit on the issue. But the states have dif- ferent approaches and po- litical appetites. They are contending with new ques- tions as both opponents and advocates of legalization point to the vaping scare to make their cases. And in an election year for many state offi ceholders, the politics of pot legalization look all the more complex.

Supporters remain hope- ful, particularly about New Jersey, where the question is now headed to voters this fall, and New York, where Cuomo spotlighted it in his State of the State speech Wednesday. fact that he has re- ally centered it as part of his agenda for this legislative session goes to show just the tremendous amount of impact and momentum there is around legaliza- says Melissa Moore of the pro-legalization Drug Policy Alliance. To her, the lung illness that has killed over 50 peo- ple, sickened thousands and been tied by authorities to a thickening agent in illicit pot vapes has created addi- tional degree of focus and for legalizing weed so users can get regulated, safety-checked products. Critics of legalization, however, feel the dynamics have shifted their way. vaping crisis has opened up conversations for us to talk about the harms of said Kevin Sabet, president of the group Smart Approaches to Marijuana.

Although its ef- forts were met with mixed results last year legaliza- tion measures stopped short in New Jersey and New York but succeeded in Illinois given us momentum in Sabet says. Two-thirds of U.S. states now allow medical mar- ijuana, and recreational use is legal in 11, including the Northeastern states of Massachusetts, Maine and Vermont. (The latter two currently allow some possession of the drug but started legal sales. Shops could open this spring in Maine, while Vermont has yet to enact a system.) New York seemed like it might be on track to join in last year, after Cuomo got behind legalization and Democrats enjoyed control of both legislative chambers for the fi rst time in several years.

But the eff ort failed amid friction over whether pot tax rev- enue would be committed to areas where marijuana arrests once were concen- trated and how commu- nities would get to choose whether to host dispensa- ries, among other issues. Lawmakers pivoted and passed provisions to elim- inate criminal penalties for possessing small amounts of marijuana and create an expungement process. This year, Senate Dem- ocratic Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins feels galization is imminent, but there are realities that are Lawmakers are very con- cerned about vaping safety, she said. Cuomo, too, has elevated health questions; his proposal this year newly includes a research center on health and safety issues. And many suburban leg- islators remain cool or out- right opposed to permitting recreational pot, citing con- cerns about drugged driving and other potential down- sides.

She opposes marijuana legal- ization but feels New York- ers should vote on it (in New York, citizens initiate referendums, but lawmakers can). Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont and New Jersey counterpart Phil Murphy both campaigned on legal- izing recreational marijuana but have faced ambivalence in their legislatures, where fellow Democrats are in control.
