KANJORSKI CAMPAIGN RESPONSE TO BARLETTA STATEMENT ON ECONOMIC CRISIS.

Wilkes-Barre PA — Statement by Ed Mitchell, spokesman for Pennsylvanians for Kanjorski:

Congressman Kanjorski is currently taking testimony in a hearing of the Financial Services Committee from Secretary of Treasury Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke on the country's economic crisis rescue plan. There will be enough time for politics after we attempt to solve this problem. Now the Congressman doesn't have time to respond in length to Lou Barletta's political posturing, as Barletta sits on the fence offering observations, but not solutions, to the problem. The bottom line Barletta has not answered is whether, and in what fashion, is his specific position to solve the crisis?
