Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf’s office signaled the Democrat governor won’t sign a Republican-backed bill that’s being proposed by Republican state lawmakers, describing it as an attempt to take away voters’ rights.
Wolf vowed to veto the proposed measure and other “legislative efforts to roll back the freedoms Pennsylvanians right now have,” according to a statement his office released over the past weekend to several news outlets. Although Republicans hold significant majorities in Pennsylvania’s legislature, those majorities aren’t enough to override a veto from the governor—meaning their bill will likely fail when it reaches the governor’s desk.
