Lentz to Hold Town Hall Forum on Economic Issues in Wayne on Saturday at 3 p.m.

Representative Bryan Lentz, the Democratic nominee for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 7th Congressional District, announced today that he would be hosting a town hall forum on economic issues this Saturday in Wayne where he would be listening to voters’ concerns and sharing his plans to help jump start the economy.

The forum will be held at the Wayne Art Center at 413 Maplewood Avenue in Wayne this Saturday starting at 3 p.m.

The forum will be a good opportunity to hear from voters about what issues they want addressed by their next representative as the nation emerges from the recent recession, Lentz said. He also said he looked forward to sharing
his plans for bringing more good-paying jobs to the 7th District.

“The top priority for my campaign has always been making sure there are enough good-paying jobs in the 7th district to support our working families,” Lentz said. “I look forward to sharing with voters how we can make that happen, and making sure that they know that their next representative will be addressing any other concerns they may have about the economy.”

Lentz has made saving and creating jobs a cornerstone of his campaign for Congress. He is the only candidate with a published plan to get our economy moving again and the only candidate who supports Wall Street reform and the
creation of a consumer financial protection agency to ensure another collapse does not happen.

Lentz has also pledged to end tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas while his opponent Pat Meehan has signed a pledge to continue rewarding companies that outsource American jobs.

“In my district and around this nation, we have the most talented, creative and hard working people anywhere,” Lentz said. “We should be putting in place policies that harness that power, not undercut it.”
