Advocates push to end death penalty as Shapiro issues first reprieve, continuing moratorium While Pennsylvania has a lengthy list of inmates nominally on death row, the state hasn't actually executed anyone since 1999.

Shapiro “is taking the kind of leadership that we expect people with a strong moral compass and a strong understanding of public policy” to be assuming. #NoDeathPenaltyPA
