PA going boom, governor says prepare

"To prepare for the wave of Baby Boomers who are nearing retirement age, Governor Edward G. Rendell has directed all agencies under his jurisdiction to develop plans to meet the challenges of serving an older population. By 2020, one in four Pennsylvania residents will be over the age of 60. "This year, an estimated 124,000 Pennsylvanians are celebrating their 60th birthday - and they represent only the first wave of our state's 3.4 million Baby Boomers," said Governor Rendell. "My 2020 Vision Project will require all commonwealth agencies to be prepared to meet the needs of Pennsylvania's changing population."'
