When the new session begins January 5, Pennsylvania Democrats will hold the governor’s office, a new 26-24 Senate majority and a majority in the House. It is the party’s first trifecta since 1993, and the question we’re hearing most is simple: what happens next?

One of the best indicators is already on paper. Over the past two years, the House sent the Senate hundreds of bills that never received final consideration. Taken together, they offer a roadmap of where the new majority may start.

Some priorities are familiar, including the minimum wage, transit funding, reproductive rights and legal recourse for survivors of childhood sexual abuse. But the list goes much further. It includes data center regulation, utility rate-setting, paid leave, new insurance mandates, data privacy, AI safeguards and corporate tax changes, many of which could directly affect how businesses operate in Pennsylvania.
