HARRISBURG — As a way to highlight Tom Wolf’s continued refusal to provide his own vision for Pennsylvania, the Republican Party of Pennsylvania released its newest web ad entitled, “Tom Wolf’s False Start.”

“Tom Wolf has spent months avoiding the media’s questions on his policies,” Gleason said. “Whether it’s denying Pennsylvania’s $47 billion pension crisis, refusing to provide his own budget plan, or publishing plagiarized documents posing as his energy policy, we just can’t trust Tom Wolf to lead Pennsylvania.

“Tom Wolf’s focused on raising taxes, not growing our economy. Wolf was content to criticize Governor Corbett’s budget, but he refused to offer an alternative plan of his own. Tom Wolf simply doesn’t want to talk about our $47 billion pension crisis, because he doesn’t have a plan to address it. When it came to Pennsylvania’s energy future, Wolf’s first vision for Pennsylvania’s energy future weren’t even his own words.

“How can we trust Tom Wolf when his approach to leadership is letting others literally do the talking for him?

“Governor Corbett has spent four years addressing Pennsylvania’s biggest issues head-on. Over the course of the past four years, Governor Corbett has created 184,000 private sector jobs and invested more state funds in our classrooms than ever before. Now, he’s working to fix our state’s broken pension system.

“Tom Wolf is more concerned about winning an election than leading Pennsylvania. Pennsylvanians simply cannot afford him.”
