Taxpayers on hook for $1.1 million for security upgrades at Josh Shapiro’s private home

Published Updated



Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday (R) signed off on a legal settlement that clears the way for roughly $1.1 million in payments to contractors who installed security upgrades at Gov. Josh Shapiro’s (D-PA) private home. The move breaks a monthslong impasse with state Treasurer Stacy Garrity, Shapiro’s Republican rival in this year’s governor’s race.

Sunday emphasized that the agreement is a one-off solution and not a blueprint for future cases, urging lawmakers to update state law to address the growing security threats facing elected officials.
