(0 - 14:44) This week on Lincoln Radio Journal: David Taylor from the Pennsylvania Manufacturers Association is joined by Rebecca Oyler from the Pennsylvania Motor Truck Association and Stephen Bloom of the Commonwealth Foundation for a Capitol Watch roundtable discussion on the need for state tax policy reform.

(14:45 - 27:58) Ruth's Place director Crystal Kotlowski tell us about the annual Walk for Hope, coming up on May 31st on Public Square in Wilkes-Barre. The Walk for Hope acts as a major fundraiser for the nonprofit, whose mission is to help homeless women across Luzerne County. The group aids over 200 women per year, and has increased its capacity by 5 beds in 2024 to aid up to 25 women at a time. Ruth's Place is almost always at capacity, and homeless numbers have only been increasing in the area. The organization not only offers a place to go 24 hour a day, 7 days a week - but also provides those in its care with items, programs and services so they may get back on their feet and find a stable job and housing once again. The Walk for Hope features testimonials, raffles, vendors and a "walk in her shoes" around downtown, making stops the women must frequent on a regular basis for needed supplies and services. Ruth's Place is also accepting donated items, volunteers and interns. Learn more by following them on Facebook.
