These cuts will impact cultural groups that directly support our communities and contribute to the long-term health, vitality, and sustainability of our region, serving thousands of city residents and visitors. Please join us in encouraging the Mayor to restore this funding.</p> Thu, 05 Aug 2010 14:45:08 -0400 http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/9035/mayor-nutter-announces-cuts-city-cultural-funding US Senate clears the way for some - but not all - PA budget relief http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/9180/us-senate-clears-way-some-not-all-pa-budget-relief <p>Yesterday, the US Senate cleared the way for a $26 billion package of aid to states and school districts as part of a six month stimulus extension. The FY 2011 Pennsylvania state budget, passed at the end of June, depended on an $850 million chunk of this federal funding for Medicaid assistance to close the fiscal gap. While the measure awaits approval from the House, Speaker Nancy Pelosi has called for members to return from their summer recess to grant final approval to the bill, which is expected to pass.</p> Thu, 05 Aug 2010 14:44:30 -0400 http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/9180/us-senate-clears-way-some-not-all-pa-budget-relief The budget heats up in Harrisburg http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/8813/budget-heats-harrisburg Thu, 15 Jul 2010 12:37:05 -0400 http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/8813/budget-heats-harrisburg UPDATE: Nonprofit Employers and Health Care Reform http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/6954/nonprofit-employers-health-care-reform n/a Thu, 15 Jul 2010 12:36:44 -0400 http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/6954/nonprofit-employers-health-care-reform City Council passes Philadelphia's budget - $20 million short http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/8737/city-council-passes-philadelphias-budget-20-million-short Thu, 15 Jul 2010 12:35:12 -0400 http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/8737/city-council-passes-philadelphias-budget-20-million-short Arts & Culture in PA's FY11 Budget http://www.philaculture.org/action/hottopics/8924/arts-culture-pas-fy11-budget-proposal <p>(July 8, 2010) On June 30, the Pennsylvania Senate approved a $28 billion budget for Fiscal Year 2011.
