The “Who Pays?” Families Over Billionaires Bus Tour stopped in Scranton on Thursday at the Black Scranton Project Center for Arts & Culture. The tour is trying to raise awareness about the impacts of recent federal tax cuts and budget reductions — such as cuts to Medicaid and SNAP — on working families in Pennsylvania, with advocate groups pushing for policies that tax extreme wealth rather than reducing public services.
