In this week's episode, MACo's Michael Sanderson connects with his Pennsylvania counterpart, Lisa Schaefer. She guides the County Commissioners Association of Pennsylvania, which serves and represents its 64 county members. They compare and contrast the two states: the budget process (where PA is still haggling over their state budget that starts on Monday), the legislative calendar, the crisis in local jails, addressing the opioid crisis, and so on. And... what is a Commonwealth, after all? Join us for a free-flowing conversation spanning across the Mason-Dixon line, but not worlds apart.
