Petri Tells Leaders "Work Together"

 

WASHINGTON, DC – In a letter sent Tuesday, Rep. Tom Petri joined with 10 other representatives from both parties to ask Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Minority Leader John A. Boehner (R-OH) to "work together to put an end to the political infighting over the war in Iraq and allow the House to unite behind a bipartisan strategy to stabilize the country and bring our troops home."

"It is absolutely crucial that we stabilize Iraq and transition the combat mission to the Iraqis," the congressmen wrote. "Any future legislative proposals considered in the House must reflect a bipartisan approach to this conflict. We ask that you join us in committing to a truly bipartisan dialogue on this issue immediately."

Joining Petri in signing the letter were Reps. Michael N. Castle (R-DE), John Tanner (D- TN), Phil English (R-PA), Scott Garrett (R-NJ), Tim Mahoney (D-FL), Jim Gerlach (R-PA), Allen Boyd (D-FL), Charles W. Dent (R-PA), Robert A. Brady (D-PA), and Dennis A. Cardoza (D-CA).
