MITT ROMNEY ANNOUNCES SUPPORT OF
PENNSYLVANIA CONGRESSMAN MIKE FITZPATRICK
Boston, MA – Mitt Romney today
announced the support of Pennsylvania Congressman Mike Fitzpatrick.
“I
have been overwhelmed by the strong support I have received in
Pennsylvania,” said Mitt Romney. “Congressman Fitzpatrick shares my
vision of cutting spending and getting Washington out of the way of the
private sector. With his help and the hard work of those supporting me
in Pennsylvania, we can defeat President Obama and turn around the
country.”
“It
is time for Republicans to unite behind the one candidate who can
defeat President Obama and end the failed policies of the last three
years,” said Congressman Fitzpatrick. “Like many of my colleagues, I
know Senator Santorum and respect the work he did for Pennsylvania but
I am strongly supporting Mitt Romney. Pennsylvania and the rest of the
country can’t afford four more years of President Obama’s failed
policies and it is important that we nominate a proven conservative
like Mitt Romney to face President Obama. I urge my fellow
Pennsylvanians to support Mitt Romney and look forward to working with
him in the weeks before the primary and to defeat President Obama in
November.”
