At this year’s PA Chamber Capitol Day, held earlier this week, Chris Berleth and I were joined by Nils Lovik of the Hummels Wharf Dairy Queen. Nils seemed to enjoy his day in Harrisburg and came away with a much deeper appreciation for the details of crafting a state budget and turning great ideas into good public policy. He also took this picture of me standing in the PA Supreme Court Chambers (above). He suggested that I tell everyone that this was the day that I “appeared before the Supreme Court.” Of course, the only person other than Nils and me at the bench that day was the Capitol Police Officer in the picture…but it’s true, I did ‘appear before an empty Supreme Court.’ 😊
