The Pennsylvania budget impasse is a series of budget impasses or fiscal crises, the latest of which happened on July 1, 2009. In a budget impasse, the State government can’t pass a budget through the General Assembly and so the State can’t pay its bills or payrolls.The Pennsylvania Constitution requires the adoption of a budget by midnight June 30 each year. As of October 1st, 2009, Pennsylvania has not adopted a budget. When Governor Ed Rendell and the Pennsylvania General Assembly failed to come to terms on a new budget, Pennsylvania entered into its seventh consecutive budget impasse.
