(WHTM) \u2013 On This Week in Pennsylvania, State Senate Minority Leader Jay Costa (D) joins the show to discuss the subpoenas for information on the security upgrades<\/a> at Governor Josh Shapiro\u2019s personal residence<\/a> after an arson attack at his Harrisburg home.<\/p>\n

Costa argues that the committee that approved the subpoenas does not have investigatory power, and that any investigation should be referred to the Inspector General, Attorney General, or Auditor General.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the contracts, all the invoices, all the information is posted in different places,\u201d Costa said.<\/p>\n

State Sen. Jarrett Coleman<\/a> (R-Nucks\/Lehigh), who chairs the Intergovernmental Operations Committee, said what happened to Shapiro and his family during the attack was \u201cdisgusting and completely inexcusable.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe residence that was attacked in Harrisburg should be repaired,\u201d Coleman said. \u201cBut when folks hear about repairs being made to private property, and this is private real-estate not associated with the attack, certainly there are lots of questions.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s estimated that $1 million in taxpayer money has been spent on the Shapiro family\u2019s Montgomery County home.<\/a><\/p>\n
