Dauphin, Lebanon County officials declare themselves ready to reopen; say they will break from Gov. Wolf’s plan

Dauphin County’s declaration started with a letter of protest from Haste, but was backed up by a tweet this evening from fellow Commissioner Mike Pries, who declared his support for Haste’s memo, and that their intent is to follow the same path blazed by their Lebanon counterparts.

The town of Dauphin sits alongside the Susquehanna River. Bolted to a pile of rocks in the river is a Statue of Liberty, about 12 ft. tall.

I would expect with that heritage, Dauphin County to defy their commie governors edicts.

Good for them.

Beaver County told Wolf to cram it earlier today.

This is great. Lancaster Co. needs to join the rebellion next.

Those of us in Northampton County are fed up with all the businesses being closed. Hope they can survive.

As with anything that concerns PA, as a lifelong Pennsy resident, I say SCREW anything Philadelphia. That includes opening up their economy.
Let the legal residents in Philly send their sanctuary guests go grocery shopping for them!!
Can’t stand Philadelphia and what they do to this state!

Wolf is a monster. Anyone who opens in Lackawanna Co. against the Wolf Communist decrees has my business.

#9. Could this mean that the Democrats are going to be the big losers on many levels of elections this Fall?

I’d like to see a nice state come back to sanity and the leftists, esp. in Harrisburg and Philly be sent packing back to Bernie Sandersville and his Moscow West operations with their tails between their authoritarian legs.

I live in Lebanon county as well.

I am proud we are pushing back.

Lebanon has a large Hispanic population. I wear a Trump 2020 facemask when shopping. I get many compliments for wearing it.

As this goes on, many Democrats are going to end up looking ineffectual. PA counties are possibly going to encourage rural counties in other states to go a different route unless Governor Wolf either punishes them soon or negotiates something for those outside of Pennsylvania’s larger cities.

The only real card Wolf has to play is the State Police. There aren’t nearly enough of them and frankly they want no part of being the top of this spear.

These county officials didn’t just do this haphazardly. Not only is the State Police the only card Wolf can play here ... I’m sure these county officials got plenty of solid legal advice telling them that the governor’s orders would never stand up in either PA or Federal court.

Not only does the emperor have no clothes in Pennsylvania. He’s not even the emperor.

I live in Berks County where they continue to inflate the numbers to keep us locked down. Monday I’m driving up to Tioga County to look at some property for sale. They opened up Tioga yesterday along with 26 other counties. I was in Lancaster Co. yesterday and judging from the crowd at Shady Maple market that county should be opened NOW.

I’m proud of Lebanon. I’m moving back there next year after being gone for about 40 years.
