PRAYER

The Chaplain, Reverend LORINA MARSHALL-BLAKE, ofVine Memorial Baptist Church, Philadelphia, offered the follow-ing prayer:

Dear most gracious and Heavenly Father, we come at thistime, first, just giving You all the honor, all the glory, and all thepraise that You are so worthy of. And God, we thank You forthis day, this day that You have made, that we are just rejoicingand glad to be in. And Lord, we thank You for this opportunityto come before You with this august body. And Lord, as westand, we join our hearts, 0 God, touching one another, 0 God,that we would be able to touch the people whom we serve, 0Lord, and that You would dispose of us who are assembled toalways be thankful, Lord, for the mercies that You continue toextend to us. Lord, to act as becomes a people who owe so muchto Thy goodness, and Lord, again we come praying for the body,and praying for the nation, and praying for our President, Lord,but especially, God, praying for this Senate of the Common-wealth of Pennsylvania.

We would ask, Lord, that You would direct them by theirwisdom in all their deliberations. And God, give them, this day,peace within themselves, You, the God of peace, and Lord, You,the God of love, power, and justice, You who wills the freedomand fulfillment of all Your children. Yes, we come thanking Youfor the constancy of Your loving kindness and tender merciestoward us. And again, especially on this day that You have made,that we are truly thankful for one more opportunity to serve Youand Your people. And Lord, at this time, we also seek to cele-brate and acknowledge all of these, Your servant leaders.

And God, we would ask that You continue to surprise us withthe discovery of how much power we have, both individually andcollectively, to make a difference. Yes, a difference in the waycitizens meet, greet, respect, and protect the rights of others. Yes,a difference in the way government, business, and labor canwork together for justice and social enrichment. And yes, a dif-ference in our response to the needy as a difference in our appre-ciation for those who give of themselves. And God, in the new-ness of the day, please help us to have a renewed hope, and stirup our passion for new possibilities, making compassion and thespirit of sacrifice be the mark of affluence of character.

May God bless you with a restless discomfort about easy answers,half-truths and superficial relationships, so that you may seek truthboldly and love deep within your heart.

May God bless you with holy anger at injustice, oppression, andexploitation of people, so that you may tirelessly work for justice, free-dom, and peace among all people.

May God bless you with the gift of tears to shed with those whosuffer from pain, rejection, starvation, or the loss of all that they cher-ish, so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and transformtheir pain into joy.

May God bless you with enough foolishness to believe that youreally can make a difference in this world, so that you are able, withGod's grace, to do what others claim cannot be done.

And it is this we ask this day, 0 God, in Your precious Son'sname. Let all the people of God say Amen.

The PRESIDENT. The Chair thanks the ReverendMarshall-Blake, who is the guest today of Senator Washington.

BILLS ON THIRD CONSIDERATIONAND FINAL PASSAGE

SB 101 (Pr. No. 178) -- The Senate proceeded to consider-ation of the bill, entitled:

An Act amending Title 65 (Public Officers) of the PennsylvaniaConsolidated Statutes, further providing for a penalty.

Considered the third time and agreed to,


The PRESIDENT. The Chair recognizes the gentleman fromLancaster, Senator Smucker.

Senator SMUCKER. Mr. President, although many Pennsyl-vanians are understandably focused on economic difficulties andtax and spending matters, they still want to see action on reform.This bill provides a reform step that is simple, effective, and longoverdue. The penalty section is the notorious weak point in thefairly good Sunshine Law. The penalties have not changed sincethe current law was approved in 1986.

Why do we need to change this? Number one, a LancasterCounty grand jury, convened to review wrongdoing that arosefrom months of secret meetings, strongly recommended strength-ened penalties. Two, a councilman in a major city confrontedwith the discovery of a secret meeting responded, I do not careabout the Sunshine Law, I do not know who cares about the Sun-shine Law, and I am not sure whether it was broken or not.Those are the sorts of situations that people really want us torespond to and remedy.

Insufficient penalties undermine the public interest in twocritical ways. They do not deter decisionmakers from erring onthe side of secrecy, and they do not justify enforcement effortsby officials who have a lot of other crimes to chase after. A Sun-shine Law has to depend on a good-faith compliance. It is impos-sible to police the thousands of jurisdictions to which it appliesor to monitor the tens of thousands of meetings held.

Stronger penalties will make officials more careful aboutcomplying with open meeting requirements. It might make themless inclined to have the solicitor concoct strained interpretationsto okay private meetings. And stronger penalties should provideincentives to prosecute the blatant violations. Some groups op-pose the bill because it applies to officials who are uncompen-sated. The price the public pays for improper decisions is thesame, no matter if the errant officials are highly compensated orworking for free. Plus, the penalties apply to intentional viola-tions, not to innocent mistakes.

Prior to my election to the Senate, I served as a township su-pervisor, so I know how the Sunshine Law works in practice, I

respect the purpose of the law, and I understand why upgradedpenalties are needed for the public interest and for public confi-dence. This is reform, legitimate, practical, and necessary. Senateapproval now gives hope that significant reform can become lawthis Session. Thank you.

The PRESIDENT. The Chair recognizes the gentleman fromChester, Senator Dinniman.

Senator DINNIMAN. Mr. President, would Senator Smuckersubmit to interrogation?

The PRESIDENT. He indicates he will.Senator DINNIMAN. My key question is this: If I am a public

official and I come to a meeting and I did not know that themeeting being held was to be secret, I mean, or the solicitor hadtold us to come because we were going to discuss real estatematters, and all of a sudden another issue came--I mean, I under-stand punishing the person who purposely tries to avoid Sun-shine, and believe me, as a minority commissioner, I can wellappreciate why Sunshine is important and necessary in my previ-ous elected office. But how do we protect the innocent supervi-sor or the innocent school board member who just happens to becaught up in this and then ends up with a $1,000 fine?

Senator SMUCKER. Mr. President, the bill specifically statesthat the penalty applies to an intentional violation of the law. Thefirst remedy always is to correct the actions that have been takenin violation.

Senator DINNIMAN. Mr. President, could the gentlemandefine the word "intentional" so we have it on the record, so thatwhen cases come up in the courts, we understand what "inten-tional" means? Because I support the law, but I am justconcerned about the innocent public official who gets caught inthe middle.

Senator SMUCKER. Well, certainly, I suppose the word "in-tentional"--the bill does not specifically define the word "inten-tional." I suppose that could be done if that is not clear.

Senator DINNIMAN. Mr. President, as I say, I will vote forit, because I understand the spirit of it, but I do hope that whenit gets to the House that we can clarify--that Senator Smuckerwould work with the House as well to clarify it, so that if I amguilty, I am punished. But as you well know, supervisors do notmake very much, and school board members make nothing, andwe do not want to scare people away from elected office. So Ithink such a definition would be very useful and helpful, and Itrust the gentleman would agree with that.

Senator SMUCKER. Thank you. Yes, Mr. President. And Ithink we have similar goals to that regard, so I appreciate thegentleman's support and would be happy to work with otherMembers of the House to improve on that.

Senator DINNIMAN. Thank you, Mr. President.The PRESIDENT. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from

Lackawanna, Senator Mellow,Senator MELLOW. Mr. President, if we have a concern in

this Chamber about intentional violation, which I certainly do,then why are we going to pass the bill, send it to the House ofRepresentatives, and then have them decide what a definitionwould be, to potentially put in the bill, with regard to intentionalviolation? I can understand the reason that Senator Smucker hasintroduced the bill, and the intent of the legislation, and I thinkhis intention is a sound intention. I just think the bill needs a littlebit more work before we leave it in this body and send it over tothe House of Representatives.


My concern is intentional violation, the definition of thatmight be a moving target. An intentional violation for one inci-dent may not be the same as it is for another incident. Willfulintent, Mr. President, would be, I think, something that would beof great concern also. The definitions in this bill, or the lack ofa definition of intentional violation in this bill, concerns me verymuch. Furthermore, we are increasing the fine from $100 to upto $1,000. Mr. President, in this bill, this violation would be asummary offense. The Crimes Code uses a maximum of $300,today, for a summary offense. When this bill was passed in 1986,which is now 23 years ago, it was passed with the fine going upto $100. If you apply the inflation value to that particular pro-posal of 1986, you would increase that fine today to $195.

I would have no problem--I think it would probably bewell-intended--if it was in the same position that the CrimesCode uses for a summary violation of $300. But a $1,000 poten-tial fine for an individual or individuals, who in many cases donot get paid a nickel and potentially do not even know that therehas been a violation of the Sunshine Law, I think, is very, verydifficult to handle, with no definition for intentional violation,and how difficult it was just in this past primary election to getcandidates to run for public office.

Local people do not want to run for a local municipal office,especially that of a school board that pays no money whatsoever.And then, furthermore, in the proposal, the way it is written, iffour members participate in this violation, the four members canbe fined up to $1,000 each, and then they have to pay that fineout of their own pockets. And if you are a member of a schoolboard, you do not get paid to begin with, and if you are on a localmunicipal council, you might get paid a small amount of moneyon a per-month basis.

It is difficult today to get people to run for public office, andwhat you are doing, I believe, under the disguise of saying "re-form of government," is making it more difficult by not havingthe proper type of definition of intentional violation. So I believethat your heart is in the right place with reform, but I am veryconcerned about what the lack of reform and the lack of defini-tion in this bill will actually do.

And furthermore, to go ahead and abdicate our responsibilitieshere, or the responsibilities of those people who are sponsors ofthis legislation, and say, let the House take care of it, I believe,is a very, very inappropriate thing to do. And I hope that, Mr.President, perhaps we could get together and we could put thebill over for a day and try to come up with the proper type ofdefinition for intentional violation, and then we all could supportit, and we could feel very, very comfortable in accomplishingsomething that would be true reform with regard to this legisla-tion.

So if it is at all possible, Mr. President, I would love to see,and I am not going to make it in the form of a motion, but if thereis a way that we could go at ease and try to put the bill over fora day and come up with the proper type of definition for "inten-tional violation," I think that would be a positive step in the rightdirection. Thank you, Mr. President.

LEAVE CANCELLED

The PRESIDENT. Senator Wonderling has returned, and hispersonal leave is cancelled.

And the question recurring,Shall the bill pass finally?

The PRESIDENT. The Chair recognizes the gentleman fromDelaware, Senator Pileggi.

Senator PILEGGI. Mr. President, I agree with many of thecomments made by my friend, the Minority Leader. I would liketo point out, though, a couple of items about Senate Bill No. 101.This identical bill was before this body last Session and passedthis body on May 7 of 2007 by a vote of 48 to 0. The issue ofintent is not changed in the bill as existing law. What the billdoes, essentially, is give the judge and the court, after trial andconviction, the discretion to impose a higher fine. It does notmandate a minimum fine, rather raises the maximum so that ajudge considering the facts before him or her has the discretionto tailor the fine to the violation.

Mr. President, I urge an affirmative vote on Senate Bill No.101.

An Act providing for the establishment of a searchable budgetdatabase-driven Internet website detailing certain information concern-ing State expenditures.

Considered the third time and agreed to,And the amendments made thereto having been printed as

required by the Constitution,



The PRESIDENT. The Chair recognizes the gentleman fromAllegheny, Senator Costa.

Senator COSTA. Mr. President, let me begin my commentsby saying that Senate Bill No. 105, while I think it is a measurethat is well-intentioned with respect to further developing thenotion of openness as it relates to our records and contracts, atthis particular point in time, Mr. President, I am going to ask, andI intend to vote in the negative. Very specifically, Mr. President,what I want to share with the Members is some of the fiscal in-formation as it relates to this particular piece of legislation.

Mr. President, our budget analysts and our Senate Committeeon Appropriations have informed us, as well as the administra-tion has informed us, that the costs for this fiscal year, for theimplementation of this program for this new reporting require-ment, the Taxpayer Transparency Act, is about $7.5 million forthis particular year, and then has an ongoing cost of $1.5 million.Now, Mr. President, a lot of the information that is outlined andenumerated in Senate Bill No. 105 about what would bereported, what would be online, what would be available to thisInternet-based program, is information, Mr. President, as I under-stand it, that is already currently accumulated and assembled andmade for public viewing, available to the public, through theDepartment of Treasury.

As I understand it, pursuant to the Right-to-Know statute, allcontracts entered into in excess of $5,000 are available online tothe public. In addition, a lot of the information that is containedon that online viewing is very similar to what has been statedhere on page 3 of the legislation: the name and principal addressof the recipients of the funds; the funding source; the agency thatis disbursing that would be part of that contract in most cases; aswell, if it is a DCED contract, the description of the purpose andtype of expenditure. A lot of this information is already availableto the public.

In this particular budget season, Mr. President, where welearned today that we are now approximately $2.84 billion shortin this year's revenue, we expect to have a cumulative deficit ofover $7 billion in this General Fund as we go forward with theGeneral Fund budget. My concern is that an expenditure of $7.5million this year--which is to come out of each of the depart-ments' outline, because there is really no funding stream or nofunding source in the legislation; it simply lets it lie with theagency required to do this--that the costs absorbed by those agen-cies would not have been contemplated for as they went throughthe budget process and as we continue to go through the budgetprocess.

In my opinion, this is something, I think, that may most ap-propriately be discussed and made part of the budget process thatwe are beginning to enter into. We have already started, but thereal nuts and bolts of what we ultimately enact will be somethingthat is hopefully done by June 30, if not shortly thereafter. But Irise today to vote against this. While I am not necessarily op-posed to the concept of the further elaboration of the informationavailable, but this particular year, with a price tag, in our estima-tion, from the Senate Democratic Appropriations Committee, of$7.5 million to implement this, I do not believe that it is an ap-propriate piece of legislation at this time, and I ask my col-leagues to join me in voting against it.

Thank you, Mr. President.The PRESIDENT. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from

Lehigh, Senator Browne.

Senator BROWNE. Mr. President, I rise in support of SenateBill No. 105. In addressing the concerns of the gentleman fromAllegheny County, the bill is something that is necessary, be-cause in the expenditure of funds, particularly this year, in mak-ing some difficult choices, our constituents should be familiarwith and have access to exactly who is receiving benefit fromState government appropriations through executive branch agen-cies and how those dollars are performing. This is something thathas been taken on by other States and has been applauded assomething that adds transparency and accountability to our ap-propriation process here in the Commonwealth.

I am somewhat concerned about my colleague's statementsregarding the prospective costs of the implementation of thisWeb portal and this service. Based on fiscal notes prepared byour Senate Committee on Appropriations, the upper-end costs ofimplementing this database for our constituents here in the Com-monwealth is $150,000, and that is not something that has beengenerated without analysis of similar-type initiatives in otherStates. When you look at the fiscal notes and the costs associatedwith States that have already put this in place - some examples:Minnesota, $5,000; South Carolina, $20,000; Nebraska $38,000,Oklahoma, $40,000; the highest cost was the State of Texas with$310,000.

One of the best ways to determine what an initiative like thiswill cost will be to benchmark against similar initiatives in otherStates, and this will be similar to what they are doing, and thehighest costs that we could project that would potentially comeas a result of this is $310,000. The initial note that was put out bythe Governor's Office of $7 million, in my opinion, based onanalysis, is way overstated. It is something that comes out of--Iam not sure what information is used to determine what that costcomes from. But given the transparency this would provide andthe additional information that this will give to our constituents,the oversight that comes as a result of this, there is no doubt tome that the costs of putting together this initiative will be morethan offset by the additional oversight that it provides to ourconstituents and their ability to hold us accountable in terms ofwhat we are spending.

If there is information on this Web site that indicates moneyis being spent by the Commonwealth on something that is notperforming, there will be a significant amount of additional scru-tiny upon this General Assembly to cut that spending. And thathas been the experience in other States as well, that with theadditional oversight, the respective State governments have cutback on that spending that has been reported, therefore savingthat additional money.

So with all due respect to my colleague from AlleghenyCounty, I strongly disagree with his assessment on the benefit ofthis and the estimate as to the costs and strongly believe that itwill be an excellent tool for Pennsylvania to continue our effortsto make State government more transparent and accountable.

Thank you very much.The PRESIDENT. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from

Lackawanna, Senator Mellow.Senator MELLOW. Mr. President, I think the debate on this

issue has been rather informative, and I do not think that I coulddisagree more with some of the statements that were made withregard to the cost. Mr. President, if the administration says thecost is $7,500,000, and the Republican Committee on Appropria-tions in the Senate says the cost is $300,000-plus, the discrep-


ancy is so great, Mr. President, somewhere between those twofigures probably lies the actual amount of money that will bepaid if, in fact, Senate Bill No. 105 is ever enacted.

Mr. President, it was May 6, not quite a month ago, that wepassed, in this Chamber, Senate Bill No. 850. Senate Bill No.850 was $900 million out of balance as it was presented to theSenate on that particular date. Now, there is no reason for us torehash what took place in the debate of Senate Bill No. 850. ButI know that Senator Browne has been around for a number ofyears. He is a highly educated individual who not only is a mem-ber of the bar but is also a certified public accountant. And heknows exactly what figures will state and what figures do notstate, and I do not question whatsoever his ability to present theproper type of financial data to the Senate. But when you havetwo different financial bits of information, and they are so dia-metrically opposed to one another, then I do not think either oneof them can be accurate. Probably, Mr. President, if you took thedifference somewhere in between both of them, you are probablylooking at an amount of money that I am sure exceeds $3 mil-lion, but we do not know that factually. And if you piggybackthat onto a $900 million budget that was passed in thisbody--with the support, incidentally, of Senator Browne--just amonth ago, we are now increasing the deficit and the cost to thetaxpayers of Pennsylvania.

Now, Mr. President, if we did not have the properRight-to-Know legislation that was put in place, and if the infor-mation that the gentleman is talking about was not readily avail-able today online, then maybe we should be considering thisparticular proposal today, even though we know full well that ifwe pass it, it will go over to the House of Representatives, andit probably will not be considered. This is a proposal, Mr. Presi-dent, that should be considered in the entire budgetary process.We should not be passing legislation right now, 1 month short ofthe deadline of the new budget, when we are facing approxi-mately a $3.2 billion deficit, and spend more unchartered moneyof the Pennsylvania taxpayer. It is not the responsible thing to doas an elected official.

Now, I further realize that, you know, the minority will haveits say, and the majority will have its way. So I am talking aboutthis, and I realize full well that I will not change one vote on theother side of the aisle, and they will support Senator Browne, andperhaps that is what they should do as a Member of the Caucus.But I think we have to be very open, and we have to be veryrealistic, that somewhere between $7.5 million, as given to us bythe Governor's Office of the Budget, and $300,000, as given tous by the Senate Republican Committee on Appropriations, liesthe real truth about what this bill is going to cost. And when youare facing the type of deficit right now of $3.2 billion, a deficitof $900 million-plus in the budget that was passed here by theSenate less than a month ago, the least appropriate thing that weshould be doing is spending more taxpayer money until we knowexactly what the fiscal responsibilities will be come the end ofthe fiscal year of June 30.

So perhaps Senator Browne's bill is a good bill, but the timingto pass this bill is inappropriate until we know exactly what thefinal cost of this bill will be, and I ask, Mr. President, based onthe fiscal responsibilities and the fiduciary responsibilities thateach and every one of us have been elected to uphold, and theConstitution of Pennsylvania, where we must pass a balancedbudget, I ask for a "no" vote on this proposal, Mr. President.

The PRESIDENT. The Chair recognizes the gentleman fromLancaster, Senator Smucker.

Senator SMUCKER. Mr. President, this reform bill puts intolaw the sort of accountability measure that taxpayers believeshould be standard across State government. It details the infor-mation about the use of State aircraft that must be compiled andaccessible. This will help insure that the use of a State plane is inline with what is legal, ethical, and fiscally responsible. Thisapproach is based on recommendations that arose from an auditreport by the State Auditor General. The bill reflects the publicinterest and deserves our support.

Thank you, Mr. President.

PETITIONS AND REMONSTRANCES

The PRESIDENT. The Chair recognizes the gentleman fromPhiladelphia, Senator Farnese.

Senator FARNESE. Mr. President, a few weeks ago on May19, citizens across Pennsylvania exercised one of their most im-portant, hard-fought rights that we have as Americans, and thatis the right to vote. Pennsylvanians exercise that right regardlessof their age, regardless of their religion, regardless of their race,and even, and even regardless of their sexual orientation.

On that same date, a Member of this very Chamber, Mr. Pres-ident, a Member of this very Chamber planned and promised tointroduce a constitutional amendment banning same-sex mar-riage. It is disappointing, to say the least, that at the same time somany in Pennsylvania were exercising one of our most cherishedrights, we, yet again, will be faced with an attack on the freedomof an entire class of productive, law-abiding Pennsylvanians.

Pennsylvania, as you know, Mr. President, already definesmarriage by statute. The General Assembly has twice, Mr. Presi-dent, has twice sought to extend that definition to the State Con-stitution. And twice, that effort has failed. Constitutional amend-ments banning gay marriage have failed twice at the Federallevel as well, and rightly so, because I cannot fathom why any-one would want to enshrine discrimination in a document thatshould, in every single respect, guarantee liberty to all. The pro-ponents of this amendment would have us believe that it is doneto protect our families and our children, yet half of all so-calledtraditional marriages fail, a higher failure rate than some Euro-pean countries where same-sex registered partnerships have beenaround for more than a decade. Mr. President, you will also hearsupporters of this amendment offer the slippery slope argument,saying that we must act to stop gay marriage, or next, we willhave polygamy and pedophilia. Of course, no real evidence sup-ports that stance.

Same-sex marriage or civil unions have been or soon will belegal in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, New Jersey, Ver-mont, New Hampshire, and Maine. Many municipalities aroundthe country recognize domestic partnerships to allow gay couplesto share in basic rights and benefits. Those States and communi-ties have not collapsed into chaos or suffered a breakdown insocial order, as the proponents of this discriminatory legislationwill want you to believe. And there is no reason that we, asPennsylvanians, need to take such drastic action to protect our-selves against taxpaying adult citizens who might ask their gov-ernment to sanction their right to a lifelong monogamous rela-tionship.

If anything, Mr. President, this effort only demonstrates thatthe potential for discrimination is all too real. All citizens in thisState should have an equal opportunity to work and earn a livingwithout regard to their sexual orientation. And Mr. President, thisrightly underscores the need for legislation such as House BillNo. 300, which I urge, which I urge my colleagues in the Houseto quickly approve.

Last month, I voted against a budget put forth by my Republi-can colleagues because I believed it to be unthoughtful,coldhearted, and quite frankly, somewhat mean-spirited. Thesame could be said of this proposal to memorialize discrimina-tion in the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.It is motivated out of fear, not by reason or compassion. And Mr.President, it is wrong. It is on the wrong side of history
