Summer for Marriage Tour 2010: One Man One Woman – August 13th

See You at the Summer for Marriage Tour: August 13th sponsored by PA for Marriage

We hope you can join fellow supporters of protecting marriage at the Capitol steps in Harrisburg on August 13th to show Pennsylvania’s support for marriage between one man and one woman.

For over a decade, the institution of marriage, the very bedrock on which civilized society rests, has been under attack by radical activists who want to redefine its very meaning. Now, for the first time since its passage, the federal Defense of Marriage Act, (DOMA) is being directly threatened. And probably more threateningly, a federal lawsuit in California is challenging the validity of Proposition 8- a measure passed by voters defining marriage between one man and one woman- on core Constitutional grounds. All observers believe this case is headed for the Supreme Court, where 5 justices could create a “constitutional right for homosexual marriage,” which will put into question what marriage means for every American across the nation.

It is time for the people to stand up and make it clear that they will not let marriage be redefined. Now, more than ever, is the time to rally behind marriage and let our voices be heard. Pennsylvania For Marriage joins The National Organization for Marriage in their month-long, nationwide Summer for Marriage Tour 2010: One Man One Woman. The tour is criss-crossing the east coast, mid-west and southern states in hosting 20 rallies to encourage supporters to stand up for marriage.

Pennsylvania is a key battleground in this critical debate. Please come join us at the Capitol steps in Harrisburg to show your support for protecting marriage in Pennsylvania.

Tom Marino on The Central Susquehanna Valley Thruway Project

Tom Marino on

The Central Susquehanna Valley Thruway Project

The Central Susquehanna Valley Thru-Way Project is and will be a priority of mine when elected as Congressman for the 10th Congressional District.  I fully support the project because of added public safety and the economic growth will enhance the region. It is my belief the project must be funded through the Transportation and Department of Commerce budgets, not by earmarks and special favors behind closed doors.  As Congressman I believe the Central Susquehanna Valley Thru-Way project must be completed not because of election year politics but because it is the right thing to do.

TOM CORBETT TALKS ABOUT HIS SMALL BUSINESS PLAN AT ERIE TRANSPORTATION SUPPLY COMPANY

Says Pennsylvania needs to be on the side of small business owners
Erie – Republican Gubernatorial candidate Tom Corbett spoke today about the importance of small businesses to Pennsylvania’s economy as he toured TESCO (Transportation Equipment Supply Company) in Erie.

“It is time for small businesses like TESCO to have someone on their side in Harrisburg,” said Corbett, “For far too long, state government has been an adversary to job growth.”

Tom Corbett’s plan to grow small business in Pennsylvania focuses on helping business owners and cutting through the red tape that often stands in the way of growth. Some highlights of the plan include simplifying the tax code, instituting regulatory flexibility for small businesses and repealing the Inheritance Tax.

“Small business owners are dealt too many roadblocks when trying to grow their business,” said Corbett, “They are heavily burdened by the costs of government regulation and excessive paperwork. That is why I want to change that as Pennsylvania’s next governor.”

With over 236,000 small businesses in Pennsylvania, they are an integral part of the state’s economy and critical to its success. Tom Corbett has been personally visiting companies like TESCO to learn firsthand the concerns of business owners. He has discussed with business leaders and employees the importance of keeping jobs in Pennsylvania and making sure we see growth in our jobs market.
“I believe it is time to restore the commonwealth’s rightful position in the global marketplace by partnering with business leaders to build job creation policies that will secure Pennsylvania’s future,” said Corbett.

“We need to encourage job creators like TESCO to grow and invest in Pennsylvania,” said Corbett. “It is critical to put money back in the hands of small business owners so they can hire more workers and expand their business.”

TESCO designs, develops, manufactures and distributes specialty maintenance and repair tools for diesel locomotive engines. It is family owned and was started 32 years ago in the owner’s basement.  The company’s product line has since grown to over 2,000 individual tools for various applications, as well as many custom-designed products for specific operations worldwide. TESCO’s home is a state-of-the-art 30,000 square-foot fabrication and manufacturing facility in Erie, Pennsylvania.

Tom Corbett for Goveror – Supporting PA’s Strong Agricultural Community

ELIZABETHTOWN—Pennsylvania Attorney General and Republican gubernatorial candidate, Tom Corbett, unveiled his campaign agricultural policy and Farm Families for Corbett Coalition on Monday, July 19th at Kenneth Myer’s dairy farm in Elizabethtown, Lancaster County. Surrounded by more than 75 supporters and friends in the Ag community, Tom spoke about his plans to create and maintain an environment in which the agriculture industry can thrive and grow.

In his remarks, Tom recognized that Pennsylvania’s farm families are a cornerstone of the Commonwealth’s economic prosperity. As Governor, Tom Corbett plans to make this key industry a top priority in state government. He was honored to receive the official endorsement of the Pennsylvania Ag Republicans in June based on his record with the Ag community.

As Attorney General, Tom Corbett led the effort to pass an unprecedented bill that created the Agriculture, Communities and Rural Environment Act (ACRE) to strike a proper balance between farmers and restrictive ordinances in order to ensure that farmers maintain their right to farm under the law. Tom works closely with state agricultural leaders and continues to tour fairs, farms and businesses throughout PA in order to hear directly about issues affecting the industry.
