The cost of acquiring a duplicate birth certificate will increase from $10 to $20, tomorrow, July 1, reports State Rep. Jim Cox (R-129)
The new money will be used to help fund children’s advocacy centers and programs to help train “mandated reporters,” who are people that must report child abuse under Pennsylvania law, Cox says.
Hey, let’s hike the cost rather than seek internal efficiencies, right? All money is magic according to those who write our laws, it seems.
You were on a roll Jim, now you’re coming after me for more taxes to pay for something that could easily be paid for if you clowns would get your nose out of the trough. Let’s go for a reduction in state salaries, pensions, health benefits and your obvious favorite per diem.
You disappoint me and you’ve lost my vote.
Want it back? Go for term limits, school vouchers and selling the state booze stores.
