The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette – Corbin Kearns and Dennis Noonan
“As plant general manager of Johnson Matthey Smithfield and as vice president of sales and marketing for Nemacolin Woodlands Resort, the two of us operate in very different industries. However, we both see ourselves as responsible neighbors with a long-term sustainable view of our respective operations. Part of this long-term sustainable view is having a strong and suitably qualified workforce, both now and in the form of a talent pipeline for the future. That is why we are pleased that there is widespread bipartisan support for increased investment in high-quality early childhood education programs in this year’s state budget. Both Gov. Tom Wolf and House and Senate Republicans have proposed significant investments in these programs — $120 million and $30 million, respectively.”(more)
