Nutter pounds pavement in Harrisburg - again - today

Mayor Nutter is in Harrisburg again today, walking the state Capitol hallways with city Finance Director Rob Dubow.

Their goal - as it was in at least two prior visits in as many weeks - is to convince Pennsylvania lawmakers to give a nod to a proposal to increase the city sales tax by one percent for five years. They also want lawmakers to approve two pension-related changes. Together, those actions would balance the budget that Council passed and Nutter signed.
