Show Notes

Governor Josh Shapiro has unveiled his Housing Action Plan, a proposal aimed at lowering costs and building more homes across Pennsylvania. 

ICE and Border Patrol agents raided a Montgomery County home last week, detaining Jose Manuel Cordova Lopez. His family is now calling for an independent investigation into what they say was a disproportionate and traumatic show of force. 

A group of Blair County volunteers is asking for help to restore a nearby abandoned town. An area historian is leading the charge and wants to turn the now-wooded area into a historical attraction. 

The outlook for Pennsylvania's rural hospitals is grim, in the face of decreasing federal dollars and budgetary challenges.

An outbreak of avian influenza - or bird flu - is affecting 2.4 million birds in seven commercial poultry flocks in Lancaster County. 

Nearly 2,000 acres of Pennsylvania farmland is being preserved, in the state's latest round of ag preservation efforts.
