概要
A major pharmaceutical investment is reshaping the state's economic landscape. Eli Lilly and Company announced on January 30 a 3.5 billion dollar injectable medicine facility in Fogelsville, Lehigh County, marking the largest life sciences investment in Pennsylvania history[3]. Construction is expected to begin in 2026, bringing more than 2,000 construction jobs and 850 permanent positions to the region. The company selected Pennsylvania from 300 applicants nationwide, citing the state's reliable infrastructure and streamlined interconnection processes as deciding factors[3]. Additional life sciences growth includes a 147.5 million dollar expansion by Eurofins Lancaster Laboratories announced in December 2025, creating 250 new jobs[3].
The state legislature is gearing up for a productive 2026 session. Both the House and Senate have published their official calendars, with February session dates scheduled for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th[2]. Governor Josh Shapiro has proposed an ambitious housing action plan aimed at reversing Pennsylvania's position as a laggard in residential construction[9]. The governor is also pitching a one billion dollar debt-funded infrastructure investment spanning housing, energy, and school buildings, with hopes that the majority will support housing development[9]. While Shapiro aims to transform Pennsylvania into a national leader on housing construction, Republican lawmakers have expressed concerns about spending amid the state's structural budget deficit[9].
Senator John Fetterman secured nearly 300 million dollars in federal funds for Pennsylvania projects announced on February 10[4]. The investments span multiple regions, including 250,000 dollars for Pittsburgh's Thaddeus Stevens Recreation Center, 1.2 million dollars for Allegheny County blight removal, and three million dollars for a career and technical education facility in Pike and Wayne Counties, the only Pennsylvania counties without such a facility[4].
On the public health front, listeners should exercise caution regarding oyster consumption. According to a PennLive daily news briefing from February 16, oysters contaminated with norovirus were distributed to restaurants and retailers across ten states including Pennsylvania[1]. Residents who have purchased these oysters are advised to discard them[1].
The state also addressed cybersecurity vulnerabilities when a Pennsylvania city paid a 500,000 dollar ransom to hackers following a summer cyberattack on city infrastructure[1]. The city's insurance carrier negotiated the payout, which was half the initial ransom demand, and the hackers subsequently released instructions for system restoration[1].
Looking ahead, the Pennsylvania primary election is scheduled for May 19, 2026, with all 203 House districts, 25 Senate districts, the governor, and all 17 U.S. House seats on the ballot[2]. The legislative session concludes November 30, 2026[2].
