We, the undersigned, urge our Congressman, Charlie Dent (PA-15), to demonstrate his willingness to reach true bipartisan compromise by working with the President and Democrats beyond those few who share his ideological leanings. He must act with others to prevent a catastrophic national default or credit rating downgrade through negotiation of a balanced plan for deficit reduction that can win widespread support to pass Congress and that does not unfairly burden any one segment of our society.

Watching the political gridlock grow while our families face the risk of a national default feels like being held hostage by people who refuse to talk. I am spending my afternoons connecting with others who are tired of these partisan games because we deserve a representative who puts the economy over his own ideology.

Seeing this level of momentum reminds me why I started this fight in the first place. My family depends on stable leadership in Washington and it is clear many of you feel the same urgency.

Charlie Dent needs to start acting like an adult and talk to the other side. Enough with the games.
