Where we are today and where we are going in the future were the subjects of Mr. Meuser’s talk as he covered Governor Tom Corbett’s 2013- 2013 budget. The most important changes for the future, said Meuser, were the Transportation Funding Bill, which he called a “bold plan on behalf of the Governor” and the Pension Reform Plan.
Chamber Executive Director Debbie Keefer welcomed the plentiful crowd who included Debbie Bachinski from Senator Solobay’s office, Dale K. Simpson from the PA Department of Revenue, Charleroi Mayoral candidate John Mollenaur and Regina Able from the S.B.A. New Chamber member Catherine Volk from Volk Technical Services was also welcomed into the group which now has 311 members total.
Dan Meuser, formerly of Pride Mobility Products was sworn in by the Corbett
Administration as Department of Revenue Secretary on January 18, 2011.
“The Corbett Administration comes from the private sector,” said Meuser, “I feel I could do a lot of good under Corbett – to put the state in sound financial order with a job for everyone who wants one.”

Meuser covered 9 points in his talk, including Tax Reform in First Two Years, Workforce Development, Passports in Learning, Divesting from Government Controlled State Liquor System, Transportation Infrastructure, Pension Crisis Reform, Education Innovations, Health and Human Services/PublicSafety and Lottery Management. “Our second highest portion of our budget goes to the Department of Public Welfare, which is not necessarily a good thing,” he stated.
