Join Governor Rendell for a discussion about the Pennsylvania budget and what it means for Pennsylvania’s retailers.

• Come hear why and how the Governor proposes to lower the sales tax to 4.7% in Allegheny County. Food, clothing, and prescription drugs would not be subject to the sales tax – just like they are today.

• Do you think the Pennsylvania Sales Tax rate matters to your business? Today the sales tax in Allegheny County is 7%– higher than in nearby West Virginia (6%) and Ohio (5.5%).

When: Thursday, February 25, 9:30 a.m.

Where: Borders at Eastside (located at Highland and Penn Circle South)
