Boston, MA –
Today, Pennsylvania Republican leaders and elected officials announced
their support for Mitt Romney. The Pennsylvania leaders and elected
officials include new endorsements from Congressmen Bill Shuster and
Charlie Dent.
Announcing
the additional endorsements, Pennsylvania Congressman Jim Gerlach said,
“Governor Romney is best suited to fix our economy. Pennsylvanians want
a leader in the White House that will have a bold plan to create jobs,
bring home energy security, and right our country's financial ship.
Governor Romney is that leader.”
“Hardworking
taxpayers across the 15th District, Pennsylvania and America are
looking for someone who will fight for them as President,” said
Congressman Charlie Dent. “I am endorsing Governor Romney because he's
the Presidential candidate that will give Americans what they want and
need – a fair shot at economic opportunity and prosperity for their
families. We've spent four years ‘hoping’ in this country – now it's
time for results. Look at his record and you will see – in both the
private sector and in service to the public – Mitt Romney delivers
results.”
“After
studying the candidates throughout this primary process, it is clear
that there is one candidate who can win in November and fix our
economy,” said Congressman Bill Shuster. “Mitt Romney has demonstrated
in this campaign, in business, in the Olympics and as a governor that
he is ready to be president on day one. That is why I support him and
why support for his campaign is growing in Pennsylvania.”
