HARRISBURG — Gov. Josh Shapiro made a lot of ambitious promises while he was on the campaign trail, from cracking down on guns, to increasing education funding, to raising the minimum wage, to cutting corporate taxes.

But it’s one thing to set goals, and another entirely to get them through the legislative process, or figure out a way to accomplish them unilaterally.
