Boston,
MA – Mitt Romney today announced the support of Pennsylvania
Governor Tom Corbett.
"I'm
extraordinarily proud to earn Tom’s support," said Mitt Romney. “Tom
has been a wonderful leader for Pennsylvania and shares my values of
spurring economic security through scaling back the size of government
and promoting pro-growth policies. There is no doubt that Pennsylvania
will be a crucial state in November. With Tom’s help, I know that I
will be able to share my vision of restoring American greatness to
Pennsylvania voters.”
“Now
that the long primary season has ended, it is time for Republicans to
come together and unite around the one candidate who can defeat Barack
Obama and institute a bold conservative vision that we need in
Washington,” said Governor Tom Corbett. “That is why I am heartily
endorsing Mitt Romney. Our country needs a president who will reverse
President Obama’s failed policies and ensure an opportunity for all
Americans to prosper. Mitt Romney will restore fiscal sanity to
Washington by cutting spending, lowering taxes, and reforming
entitlements.”
