Pennsylvania’s legislators must pass a meaningful State budget and permit the City’s sales tax increase. Without a state and city budget that makes sense, people who need behavioral health services won’t get them, workers are losing jobs and struggling to pay their own rent, and homelessness will increase. When the City cannot pay providers to house people who are homeless and to meet the needs of people with behavioral health issues, a ripple effect is sent throughout the community that impacts Philadelphians of all backgrounds.
