PA Subsidy Programs Lack Job, Wage Standards (Noah Brode) from Essential Public Radio [of Pittsburgh]
"When the Keystone Opportunity Zone program was created in 1998, it was hailed as a way to attract business to poor areas in Pennsylvania by eliminating some state and local taxes within certain boundaries. Thirteen years later, the program is being ranked among the worst tax credit projects in the country, in terms of the expectations of companies that benefit from the program to hire a certain number of workers and pay fair wages."
