ACLU CALLS PA SCHOOL VOUCHER PLAN UNCONSTITUTIONAL
CA BEATING VICTIM'S LAWYERS CALL FOR EVIDENCE

ACLU CALLS PA SCHOOL VOUCHER PLAN UNCONSTITUTIONAL If Pennsylvania chooses to adopt its governor's school voucher proposal, the ACLU promises "vigorous opposition" to it, ACLU President Nadine Strossen said in a recent speech given at Penn State University's Altoona Campus. School voucher programs are a severe violation of the separation of church and state, Strossen said, because they use state funding to illegally support parochial schools. Last year, Governor Tom Ridge introduced his so-called "school choice" proposal, allowing parents to decide whether or not to send their children to public or parochial schools. With the help of a voucher, a parent would be able to use state money to defray some of the costs of a private, parochial school. Such funding constitutes government support of religious institutions, reported the Altoona Mirror shortly after Strossen's speech. School voucher programs are unconstitutional and will be struck down in the courts if enacted, the paper said.

Shenango Valley community profile
Mercer County, Pennsylvania
Profile Statistics Credits Mercer County Home Page PROFILE T he Shenango Valley is made up of 8 communities from Northwestern Pennsylvania and 2 communities from Ohio. The communities are closely joined together, so the commuting time to work for most residents is between five and ten minutes. Interstate 80 and Route 60 pass directly through the Valley while Interstate 79, just to the East, intersects Interstate 80 with access to both the Erie and Pittsburgh markets. State Route 60 leads south from the Valley to the Pennsylvania Tumpike and to the Pittsburgh International Airport which is just 54 minutes away. To the west, Interstate 80 connects with the Ohio Turnpike. The Youngstown Municipal Airport is just 20 minutes away. Historically this area has been a major contributor to America's iron and steel industry. Although still active in steel production and heavy industry, the Shenango Valley has diversified its economic base to include light industry, high tech manufacturing, health services and tourism. Some of the largest employers are the primary metal, electrical equipment, health services and local transportation industries. Fabricators of metal products and non-electrical machinery manufacturers are also important. Three of the four manufacturers of steel pipe in the United States are located in the Shenango Valley. The Valley has two hospitals, Sharon Regional Health System and Horizon Hospital System. Sharon Regional Health System is a teaching facility with an affiliated diploma school of nursing. Both attract top-quality physicians and contribute to the excellent medical care available in the area. Nine other hospitals are within a 1/2 hour of the Valley.

Home of the Groundhog
Phil saw his shadow!
February 2nd, 2004
At 7:27AM on Monday February 2nd, 2004, Punxsutawney Phil, King of the Groundhogs. Seers of Seers,
Prognosticators of Prognosticators, Weather Prophet without Peer, Imitated but Never Equaled
gave the following proclamation:
I'm glad I live in this luxurious burrow on the Knob,
And not in a dirty, smelly spider hole like a slob.
When I come out, I don't want to negotiate,
But to just do my job and Prognosticate!
Today because my shadow I see,
Six more weeks of winter there will be!!
The sky was clear and the temperature was around 2 degrees. The ground was covered by over a foot of snow and ice and there was yet another winter storm warning forecast for the area. Around 10,000 people were on hand for the event which included a show and a display of fireworks. All weekend long, the town was filled with people enjoying displays and festivities. There were craft shows, art shows, ice carving, dinners, and parties. It was bitter cold on Saturday, but warmed up to 25 degree on sunday, which felt really warm compared to most temperatures so far this year!

What's NEWS in Punxsy:
    Groundhog Day 2003:
    Groundhog Day fell on Sunday this year, so large crowds were expected. As it turned out, the crowd did not top last years 40,000, but still, 30,000 is a big crowd for Punxsutawney, where the normal non-Groundhog Day the population stands at less than 7,000. All weekend long, downtown Punxsy was crowded with people and traffic. There were loads of activities around. Several empty stores downtown were used for Groundhog day events. Even the old store on the corner of Findley and Mahoning St. was opened for arts and crafts. This store closed many years ago and last had Western Auto in it. Before that, it was a Murphy's store. It was fun to be in the old place again and see it alive with activity. There was a chainsaw artist, ice carving, live music, a foot race, food concessions, blacksmithing demonstrations, and all sorts of other things going on in the park.

JOINT STATEMENT
Tuition Vouchers
Sent to All Members of the General Assembly
March 29, 1999
We, the undersigned, are counsel to various organizations that represent millions of Pennsylvanians. We write you in that capacity and as concerned citizens of this great Commonwealth. The administration has indicated that yet another attempt will be made to secure voucher legislation for elementary and secondary religious school tuition as part of the 1999-2000 budget process. Voucher proposals will divert hundreds of millions of state tax dollars to private schools money that should be used to help the nearly 2 million youngsters in our public schools (85% of the school age population) who need that help. Of particular concern is a proposal to fund tuition vouchers instead of assistance for several academically and financially "distressed" school districts. We respectfully ask you to oppose all tuition voucher legislation. We believe there are powerful reasons why such legislation is bad public policy and contrary to our most basic laws and traditions establishing religious freedom and separation of church and state. The non-precedential decision of the United States Supreme Court not to review a voucher case coming out of Wisconsin does not change those reasons.

PCPE Information Series
Tuition Vouchers
What are the concerns about vouchers for nonpublic schools? o Anyone who could meet limited criteria specified in the legislation could open a school and receive voucher money. o Nonpublic schools may deny admission to children based on religion, gender, economic status, physical ability, mental capacity, or other arbitrary criteria. o Nonpublic schools provide for no public review or oversight. o Vouchers for nonpublic schools would be distributed with no provisions regarding achievement, accountability, or compliance with public school regulations. o Additional costs for budget items such as transportation and administration may increase the burden on local taxpayers. o Vouchers only cover a percentage of the cost of tuition. Only those with financial means to make up the difference between the voucher and the actual cost of tuition would have access to the system. Tuition vouchers are grants that would give state tax dollars to parents to subsidize tuition to public, private or parochial schools. The concept first surfaced in the Pennsylvania Legislature in 1991. Following a narrow defeat, the legislation has been modified and reintroduced in various forms in each subsequent legislative session. Tuition vouchers have been proposed repeatedly in numerous forms and in various parts of the nation with little success. The issue has been put to a vote twenty times in public referenda in other states and has been defeated every time.

Pittsburgh plans 500 layoffs With a big deficit and no help from Harrisburg, Mayor Murphy looks for ways to cut costs Friday, August 01, 2003 By Timothy McNulty, Post-Gazette Staff Writer With no relief coming from the Legislature, the Murphy administration is planning to lay off more than 500 workers and shut down senior centers, recreation centers, pools and other services to save money, sources said yesterday. The cutbacks, which still won't prevent the city from going broke by the end of the year, could be announced as early as next week. Neither Mayor Tom Murphy nor his spokesman would confirm the plans. The cuts, which are being discussed with city department directors and bureau chiefs, also could include suspending Public Works services such as rodent control, and selling the city's asphalt plant, said a source who spoke on the condition of anonymity. Murphy has already said events such as September's Great Race could be canceled. The city is facing a $60 million budget shortfall this year, which it wants to make up with tax increases and pension aid, both of which require state approval.
