The Cumberland Valley school board has reversed a controversial decision and reinstated an anti-bullying talk with actor and children's book author Maulik Pancholy.

Election administrators are touting this week's primary as a success in terms of the process. 

Both presidential candidates are dealing with a significant number of votes cast for candidates who already dropped out of the race.  

Democracy is front in center in the race for the 10th Congressional seat, held by Republican Scott Perry. My colleague Jordan Wilkie has asked each candidate what their messaging on democracy is. Today, he reports on Perry, who will face Democrat Janelle Stelson in November.

It took answering just one question for Pennsylvania Treasurer Stacy Garrity to secure President Donald Trump’s coveted endorsement in this year’s governor's race. That’s according to an audio recording obtained by WITF of Garrity recounting the story at a Republican fundraiser.

Our recent snowstorm is having a ripple effect on the area blood supply, among regional American Red Cross banks and centers. The organization declared a severe national emergency last month. Demand at health centers is currently outpacing supply.

Health advocates and doctors are raising awareness about a program for seniors that helps people on Medicare pay for their prescription costs in monthly installments, instead of all at once. Research shows the program has seen scant enrollment since debuting last year.

The Pennsylvania State Police is now accepting applications for its 20-26 Law and Leadership Academy. The program is free and open to anyone interested in pursuing a career in law enforcement.

PA Headlines | March 2 | A deep dive into how Garrity secured Trump endorsement.

State officials are looking to curb Pennsylvania's ongoing outbreak of bird flu — the worst it’s seen in decades.

The State Game Commission has joined efforts to help the Commonwealth address the most recent avian flu outbreak.

During his annual State of the Union address Tuesday night President Donald Trump said he worked out a deal with energy-hungry data centers to build their own power plants. The facilities are expanding to accommodate the growth in artificial intelligence.  Rising electricity costs are due in part to the increase in data centers.

About 100 people protested last weekend outside the municipal building in the small Berks County township where ICE want to convert a warehouse into an immigration detention center.

More than 100 of Pennsylvania’s rural volunteer fire companies are receiving more than $900,000 dollars in state grants to strengthen the state’s wildfire protection.

More than two dozen PennDOT snowplows are heading to New England to help the region dig out of last weekend's blizzard.

This weekend in York County, dozens of brave souls will take the Polar Plunge for a good cause. The Capital Area Polar Plunge is being held at Gifford Pinchot State Park in Lewisberry to benefit the Special Olympics in Pennsylvania.

And a deep dive for anyone suffering from Olympic withdraw:

There's a Pennsylvania connection to the U.S. Men's Hockey Team that you might not know about. Wilkes-Barre Native Teddy Richards was the equipment manager for the gold medal-winning team. And Richards started his career as a stick boy for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins.

WITF, along with hundreds of Public Media organizations across the country, is facing a significant annual budget gap with the loss of federal funding. That means that WITF is now dependent on individual member support more than ever. But only 10% of our audience donates to WITF. If you're part of the 90% who hasn't, we're asking you to do that now.

PA Headlines | Feb. 27 | Curbing avian flu – and how you can help.

A new study quantifies how many people die in the Pittsburgh region as a result of air pollution. The study finds air pollution was responsible for between 11 and 12 and a half percent of all deaths in southwestern Pennsylvania in 2019.

Meantime, Philadelphia has rolled out a new website dedicated to air quality. Scores of monitors across the city are keeping tabs on pollution in many neighborhoods. 

The State Treasurer’s Office hit a record-breaking return of unclaimed property in 2025.

Did you know that if every one of WITF’s sustaining circle members gives as little as $12 more a month, we'd close the gap caused by federal funding cuts? Increase your gift at https://witf.org/increase or become a new sustaining member atwww.witf.org/givenow.
