September 18, 2025 – Because of the ongoing budget impasse for Fiscal Year 2025-2026, all agencies under the Governor’s jurisdiction are now prohibited from incurring in-state and out-of-state non-essential travel costs including all air travel, ground travel, lodging, parking, tolls, subsistence, and any other miscellaneous travel expenses. This prohibition also applies to state and federal appropriations that have established stopgap ESNs to enable the Commonwealth to meet its legal obligation to fund certain mandated programs and provide for the health, safety and welfare of residents during the budget impasse. Travel bookings and expense claims from this date forward will be monitored for compliance with these prohibitions. Reservations made prior to 9/18/2025 should be cancelled unless your agency would incur additional costs or fees as a result of the cancellation. Click here for more details. Questions related to this prohibition or requests for an exception for essential travel can be directed to the Office of the Budget at ra-obquestions@pa.gov.
