Governor appoints without restriction. Would Shapiro appoint Fetterman’s wife? I’m not sure why he would. What does he have to gain from that?
Fettermans not going anywhere.

No, but she can run to replace him in the election.

Reply to comment by FMG1978 in Can Fettermans wife really become the senator if he’s unable? by ChickenGreaseLips
this is misleading. theres no technicality or chain of command where a vacated senate seat automatically goes to the spouse of the former senator. The only way his wife would “take over” is if shapiro appointed her to the seat, which i guarantee would never happen.

Well it's theoretically possible if that's who Shapiro appoints, but not that's not gonna happen I don't know why right-wing media is so obsessed with her. No clue who Shapiro would appoint if Fetterman steps down, but it isn't gonna be his wife.

Wouldn't the Governor appoint someone until a special election could be scheduled?

Yes, his wife can take over for him and becomes senator for life due to a technicality in how the law was written

The most likely scenario IMO is he resigns (as I hope he does for his health), and Gov. Shapiro appoints another Dem to serve the remainder of the term

Read an excellent article in readers digest a few years back. Guy went to 50 dentists in 50 different states. His buddy was a dentist and told him he had 1 bad tooth that needed a filling only. Well, this guy got quotes as high as 25K! Dentists told him he needed full mouth repair and everyone was recommending root canals... dentists used to make money with fillings but today's kids have a significant decline in decay due to fluoride in water. There is no governing body to regulate what they charge or oversee their practice. Moral of the story? Get 2nd opinions and if u find a dentist u like and trust, stick with him!

Reply to comment by cowboyjosh2010 in Shapiro: Pennsylvania DEP will test water in connection with Ohio train derailment by oldschoolskater
You may be right, but the fact that residents in that town are saying that it hurts to breathe and people are feeling sick and they maintain the stance that the air and water "is fine" it makes me a little doubtful. Not to mention the smoke from the burn carried into PA because there was wind during the burn. And a few day ago wind apparently picked up PM(particulate matter) from the area and carried that into PA. This is something we have to be mindful of. Chemical spills and burns don't go away just like that. People have the right to question when it looks like they are being lied to.

I'm afraid that if you want to be in the 'mountain region' of PA (I presume you basically just mean the north/north-central part of the state?), you're going to have to contend with fracking wells now and for a long time coming. Honestly you should either find a way to convince yourself that it's okay to live around them, or else just don't live in that type of area.
I can't speak to which towns are good or bad to live in--not really an area of the state that I know well on that level.

Whatever degree of damage could ever be done to Pennsylvania by the plume of smoke and unburned chemical vapors: it's done. The fire has been out for 9 days, and these chemicals are volatile enough that anything which didn't burn has already either offgassed by now, OR is trapped in the soil or the ground water--both of which will affect Ohio, not PA.
There may be damages from airborne contaminants that ought to be compensated, but I highly doubt that airborne damage continues at this point.

EPA isn’t gutted their budget goes up constantly. They’re just worthless and wasteful.

You gotta have some big balls to crash a poison train into a town and then claim it’s you who are unsafe

We travel to Carlisle for business often. It's a wonderful town. Not a huge city feel but plenty of stuff to do around town and in the places nearby.
Definitely try Issei Noodle if you enjoy Asian cuisine. We always try to stop when we're there.

Thanks for putting this here. I did not mention but on my last hold before giving up contacting them via phone, I found that info and filed during the last call. Only other option they have for contact is post office, which will be sent out tomorrow as well.
