Expanding our workforce by investing in nursing professionals

Rep. Jose Giral    March 6, 2025 | 2:59 PM

I was proud to stand with Gov. Josh Shapiro, my colleagues from the PA House and PA Senate, PA Department of Labor & Industry Secretary Nancy A. Walker, and health care professionals from Temple University to highlight the work we’ve done to address Pennsylvania’s nursing shortage.

Nurses are a critical part of a person’s health care journey and Gov. Shapiro’s 2025-26 state budget proposal calls for a $5 million investment to educate and recruit qualified nursing professionals. We’re expanding workforce development initiatives under Gov. Shapiro’s leadership to address our ongoing nursing shortage and to provide better health care and outcomes for all Pennsylvanians.
