PA Senate Passes Sen. Yaw Bill to Create Independent Energy Office

The great state of Pennsylvania has an Independent Fiscal Office (IFO), created by Act 120 of 2010 and Act 100 of 2016. The IFO analyzes fiscal proposals made by state agencies and is nonpartisan in its analyses. PA State Senator Gene Yaw, from Lycoming County (and Chairman of the Senate Environmental Resources & Energy Committee), introduced a bill last June to create an Independent Energy Office (IEO) modeled along the same lines as the IFO (see PA State Sen. Yaw Intros Bill to Establish Independent Energy Office). That bill, which became Senate Bill 832, passed the full Senate in a vote taken yesterday.
