Gov. Tom Wolf’s former business, a cabinet supply company in central Pennsylvania, has continued operating during the coronavirus shutdown despite having its waiver rescinded by state officials, PA Post and Spotlight PA have learned.
Last week, in response to questions from the news organizations about how the company qualified as “life-sustaining,” the governor’s office said in a statement that a waiver that had been issued to Wolf Home Products allowing it to stay open would be revoked, forcing it to close.

When Wolf owned it, the biggest customer of “Wolf Home Products” was the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Business owners and lawmakers have cried foul over these waivers that have allowed select businesses to reopen. Workers across the state have been laid off or sent home while others, sometimes in the same industry, continue working–and there’s been no clear rationale for why.
More than 42,000 waiver requests were submitted before Wolf again surprised employers by suddenly shutting the process down on April 3.
At that time, more than 11,000 requests had gone unanswered. For those that did receive a response, approvals and rejections seemed to have little rhyme or reason. Meanwhile, hundreds of businesses have received police warnings for remaining open.
It’s easy to understand the misgivings about these waivers, especially when the governor’s former business, Wolf Home Products, received a waiver. Public outcry resulted in the waiver being pulled–but neither the waiver nor its cancellation was explained.
