My name is Bryan Lentz, and I’m a former Airborne Ranger, criminal prosecutor and an Iraq War veteran running for Congress in Pennsylvania’s Seventh District.

This week, my opponent, corporate attorney Pat Meehan, decided to launch a smear campaign based on lies and innuendo. Sadly, this is exactly the type of campaign that we have come to expect from a career politician like Pat Meehan. After 30 years of backroom deals and partisan mudslinging, Meehan is simply incapable of being anything but a typical politician.

Today I wanted to share with you all a blog post from my campaign manager, Vincent Rongione, that he published on my website. Vince talks about some of the systemic problems with my Republican opponent's nominating petitions and the many questions that have so far gone unanswered. If you've missed the petition scandal story so far, check out the Philadelphia Daily news article, Petition fraud could give Meehan a bad name, or this Delco Times editorial asking Meehan to step up and explain himself.

Hello DailyKos! I am Bryan Lentz and I am running for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 7th Congressional District. Today, I wanted to take a moment to talk about high-speed rail and my state, Pennsylvania.

President Obama recently announced the major recipients of the $8 billion fund for high-speed rail projects: $2.3 billion went to California, $1.1 billion went to Illinois, and $1.25 billion went to Florida. Pennsylvania received only $25.6 million for track improvements.

Hello DailyKos. I am Bryan Lentz and I am running for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 7th Congressional District. I wanted to take a few minutes today, on the day our President will deliver the State of Union, and bring you up date on some recent developments in my state.

More and more it seems that the most powerful party in politics is not the Democrats or the Republicans – it seems the most powerful party is the Corporate-Incumbent party. Hell bent on voting to preserve their place in elected office and line the pockets of their corporate contributors, this party has hijacked every policy debate, from clean energy to healthcare and everything in between.

My name is Bryan Lentz, and I’m running for Congress in Pennsylvania’s Seventh District. I am a former Airborne Ranger, prosecutor, and an Iraq War veteran. I currently serve as the Pennsylvania State Representative from the 161st District in Delaware County. I’m running for Congress because we need bold citizen activists in Washington, not career politicians. Five short years ago I was in the Army serving in Iraq. The disconnect I saw there between what was happening on the ground and what was happening in Washington with the Bush administration is what motivated me to come home and run for office. Since that time I have unseated a 28-year Republican incumbent, stood up to my own party leadership on important reform issues and always kept service to my constituents as my number one priority—closing more than 22,000 constituent cases in three years. I plan to use this diary space throughout the campaign to talk about the power and importance of public service and to give as many people as possible the opportunity to learn about me and discuss the most important issues facing our nation.
