State and Local Leaders Highlight Shapiro Administration Investments to Modernize 911 System in Pennsylvania

The Shapiro Administration joined county and local leaders to discuss how Governor Shapiro has supported the transition to Next Generation 911 (NG911) - the most significant technological upgrades in the history of Pennsylvania's 911 system.

"As technology changes, people expect their 911 system to keep up with new capabilities for communication and the transfer of information," said PEMA 911 Deputy Greg Kline. "Our 911 system is the backbone of emergency services in Pennsylvania, and these investments are proof that the Shapiro Administration takes public safety seriously."

In 2023, Gov. Shapiro signed legislation to extend support of the Commonwealth's 911 system through Jan. 31, 2029. The legislation also increased the 911 monthly surcharge by 30 cents through Jan. 31, 2026 - a small change that promised to support the ever-growing costs associated with providing quality 911 services across the Commonwealth. As of Dec. 31, 2024, 97 percent of Pennsylvania's counties have migrated to NG911. The remaining counties are expected to complete their migration in early 2025.

Speakers Include:
Greg Kline, PEMA 911 Deputy
Dean Horst, Chairman, Franklin County Board of Commissioners
Randy Phiel, Chairman, Adams County Board of Commissioners
Senator Doug Mastriano, Franklin & Adams counties
