An Act selecting, designating and adopting the Pennsylvania March as the official march of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
HB 1275 designates Ron DeGrandis's "Pennsylvania March" as the official march of Pennsylvania. The bill formally adopts this musical composition - premiered in 2018 and described as a tribute to the state’s landscapes - as Pennsylvania’s first official march in the traditional American march genre. It requires the Legislative Reference Bureau to publish the full composition in the Pennsylvania Bulletin within 30 days of the law’s effective date. This is a symbolic, procedural measure with no direct policy impact or effect on residents.
